In a code language, 'ACTING' is coded as ‘ZXGRMT’ and 'CABALS' is coded as ‘XZYZOH’. How will 'EAGLET' be coded in the same language?
- AVZTOVG
- BVGTOVG
- CVZTPVG
- DVZSOVG
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The logic here uses the pairs of opposite letters in the English alphabet (where the sum of the positions of opposite pairs is always 27):
A↔Z
C↔X
T↔G
I↔R
N↔M
G↔T
So, 'ACTING' becomes 'ZXGRMT'.
Let's double-check with 'CABALS':
C→X, A→Z, B→Y, A→Z, L→O, S→H
This perfectly matches 'XZYZOH'.
Now applying the same logic to 'EAGLET':
E→V
A→Z
G→T
L→O
E→V
T→G
Thus, 'EAGLET' is coded as VZTOVG.
A↔Z
C↔X
T↔G
I↔R
N↔M
G↔T
So, 'ACTING' becomes 'ZXGRMT'.
Let's double-check with 'CABALS':
C→X, A→Z, B→Y, A→Z, L→O, S→H
This perfectly matches 'XZYZOH'.
Now applying the same logic to 'EAGLET':
E→V
A→Z
G→T
L→O
E→V
T→G
Thus, 'EAGLET' is coded as VZTOVG.
