Matrices 4

Matrix questions test logic and observation. In this quiz, pupils study how each row and column connects through shared patterns to find the missing shape.

Fascinating Fact:

One common trick is that every row or column might follow a mini-pattern, so the missing shape must satisfy both.

In 11 Plus Non-Verbal Reasoning, matrix puzzles encourage pupils to analyse relationships between shapes. They learn to identify how rules apply both across and down a grid, improving logical thinking and attention to detail.

  • Matrix: A grid where each row and column follows a rule or pattern.
  • Mini-pattern: A smaller rule that applies to part of the puzzle, often within a row or column.
  • Deduction: The process of using logic to reach the correct answer based on given clues.
What is a matrix in non-verbal reasoning?

A matrix is a grid of shapes where each row and column follows a logical rule. Pupils must find which shape completes the missing space correctly.

How do you find mini-patterns in a matrix question?

Look carefully at how shapes change across rows or columns. Mini-patterns often involve rotation, number, or shading that repeat in smaller groups.

Why do matrix puzzles help develop problem-solving skills?

They train pupils to observe, compare, and think logically. Recognising relationships between shapes also supports maths and design-based reasoning.
