In connector problems, the labeled points (such as A and B) indicate:

Reviewed by Jordan Morley, Editorial Lead at 247SimpleTests. Written by the 247SimpleTests Editorial Team from the official source material cited on every question.

Correct answer

The exact spots where the connecting line must touch each shape

  1. A The color of the line
  2. B The size to make the shapes
  3. C The exact spots where the connecting line must touch each shape
  4. D Which shape to ignore

Why this is the answer

The labeled points (A and B) indicate the EXACT SPOTS where the connecting LINE must touch each shape. ASVAB Assembling Objects connector problems. The line connects point A on one shape to point B on the other; the correct answer must attach the line at those precise locations. The shapes may be rotated, but the line stays connected to the same labeled points on the same shapes. ELIMINATE answers where the line attaches at the wrong points, to the wrong shapes, or in the wrong place. Tracking the labeled connection points precisely is the essential skill for connector problems.

About this topic: Connecting Points

Connecting-points items show shapes with labelled points and ask which answer joins them correctly. The skill is tracking where each labelled point sits on its shape after the shapes are moved — not where the shapes end up. This is one of 13 Assembling Objects questions on connecting points, each with a full explanation on a single study page.
