Question
Two different positions of the same dice with faces Z, G, M, F, H and S are shown below. Select the letter that will be on the face opposite to the one having G. [Refer to the figure.]
- A. S
- B. F (Correct answer)
- C. H
- D. M
Correct Answer
Option B — F
Detailed Solution & Explanation
The correct answer is F.
Key Points
- The face 'Z' is common to both positions; taking it as fixed, the second view is a rotation of the first.
- Tracking the remaining faces shows G and F land on opposite faces.
- Hence the face opposite G is F.
Additional Information
- The same fixed-face method applies to letter dice as to numbered ones: find the face shown in both views and rotate around it.
- A cube has three pairs of opposite faces, so identifying one pair often forces the others by elimination.
- Faces that appear adjacent in any single view can never be opposite — that alone usually removes two options.
