Give your perspective a turn.
Spatial reasoning tasks ask you to mentally rotate, reflect, and compare figures. A familiar shape can look different when you move your point of view.
Rotation and reflection are different
A rotation turns a shape without reversing it. A reflection changes handedness. Look for an asymmetric feature, such as a gap or an uneven arrangement, to distinguish the transformations.
A useful strategy
Imagine an intermediate turn instead of jumping straight to the answer. Track one distinctive feature through each step, then check the rest of the figure.
