Question

Study the diagram carefully and answer the question: In this diagram the triangle represents doctors, the circle represents players, and the rectangle represents artists.

Which numbered space in the diagram represents doctors who are also artists only?

1. A. 1
2. B. 2 (Correct answer)
3. C. 5
4. D. 6

Correct Answer

Option B — 2

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is 2.

Key Points

• In a Venn diagram with a triangle (doctors), circle (players), and rectangle (artists): the region that is inside both the triangle and rectangle but OUTSIDE the circle represents people who are doctors and artists but NOT players.
• Based on the standard Venn diagram layout for this type of question, region 2 represents doctors who are also artists only -- they belong to both the triangle (doctors) and rectangle (artists) but not to the circle (players).
