Three of these figures are shaded in. Which figure is the odd one out?
- AFigure A

Three of these figures are the same figure simply turned round. Which figure is the odd one out?
- AFigure A
- BFigure B
- CFigure C✓
- DFigure D
Answer: Turning a figure never swaps its left and right round. Three of these are the same figure at different angles, but one of them has been flipped over as well, so it cannot be made to match the others no matter how far you turn it.
