Select the option that is related to the fifth letter-cluster in the same way as the second letter-cluster is related to the first letter-cluster and the fourth letter-cluster is related to the third letter-cluster.
HEATED : TWAHWX :: BODIES : ZMXSWI :: CABLES : ?
- AYAZPXI
- BYAZQWJ
- CYAZPWI
- DYBZPWI
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's investigate the pattern by examining the cross-positions or direct changes.
For HEATED : TWAHWX
Let's reverse the word HEATED → DETAHE.
Now compare DETAHE with TWAHWX:
D → T (No direct short shift)
Let's check pairs or opposite letters:
H → T, E → W, A → A, T → H, E → W, D → X
Let's look at the vowels and consonants or reverse values:
H (8) → Opposite is S (19) →19+1=20 (T)
E (5) → Opposite is V (22) →22+1=23 (W)
A (1) → Opposite is Z (26) →26+1=27=1 (A)
T (20) → Opposite is G (7) →7+1=8 (H)
E (5) → Opposite is V (22) →22+1=23 (W)
D (4) → Opposite is W (23) →23+1=24 (X)
Wow! The logic is: (Opposite letter value) + 1.
Let's verify with BODIES : ZMXSWI
B (2) → Opposite Y (25) +1=26 (Z)
O (15) → Opposite L (12) +1=13 (M)
D (4) → Opposite W (23) +1=24 (X)
I (9) → Opposite R (18) +1=19 (S)
E (5) → Opposite V (22) +1=23 (W)
S (19) → Opposite H (8) +1=9 (I)
This perfectly matches ZMXSWI.
Now, apply this pattern to CABLES:
C (3) → Opposite X (24) +1=25 (Y)
A (1) → Opposite Z (26) +1=27=1 (A)
B (2) → Opposite Y (25) +1=26 (Z)
L (12) → Opposite O (15) +1=16 (P)
E (5) → Opposite V (22) +1=23 (W)
S (19) → Opposite H (8) +1=9 (I)
The coded word is YAZPWI.
For HEATED : TWAHWX
Let's reverse the word HEATED → DETAHE.
Now compare DETAHE with TWAHWX:
