I saw the below questions and was curious regarding the logic behind the answer. I will be grateful is some one could help me
So the question is given the patter, identify the next one

$\begingroup$ By looking at the directions of the arrows and their heights, I'd say E :) $\endgroup$– AlexOct 20, 2012 at 8:06

1$\begingroup$ Denying a relation between the even and odd elements of the sequence leads to D as a sensible choice. The change of orientation of the arrows indicates that one of D and E should be the answer. $\endgroup$– Lord_FarinOct 20, 2012 at 8:56

$\begingroup$ Are you sure this has something to do with maths, and isn't some cop-out such as "how to dance the Timewarp"? $\endgroup$– Douglas S. StonesOct 20, 2012 at 11:29

I would say it's last image
- A -> B = 90 degree
- B -> C = 180 degree
- C -> D = 270 degree
- D -> E = 360 degree
- E -> new one = 450 degree

I would say that the answer was D
As every other one has to be opposites and the middle denotes the direction of movement of the line.
For example, 1 and 3 are opposite, were 2 points left resulting in 3 being in the left 3rd.
Following that logic, the answer has to be opposite of 4 (pointing left) and the arrow has to move down, however, the arrow is already at the boundary meaning it returns to the top seen in the previous arrows.
