Choose the correct water-image of figure (X) from the alternatives A, B, C and D.
- AFigure (A)
- BFigure (B)
- CFigure (C)
- DFigure (D)
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
In a water image, the top and bottom parts of the object are inverted vertically, while the left and right sides remain unchanged:
1. The horizontal dividing line remains in the center.
2. The elements in the top half ('X' and the square) flip to the bottom half, keeping their left-right positions ('X' stays on the left, square stays on the right).
3. The diagonal line inside the square flips vertically, changing from a bottom-left-to-top-right orientation to a top-left-to-bottom-right orientation.
4. The small solid circle attached below the horizontal line on the left flips to become attached above the horizontal line on the left side.
This perfectly matches the configuration shown in Figure (B).
