Answer Key — CCAT Grade 8

1. C — In the top row, a smaller copy appears inside and the figure shrinks. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives C. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies only one of the two changes; B applies a different rule than the top row shows; D the bottom figure with no rule applied; E copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure.
2. A — What the three figures share: all figures are the same shape. A shares it too. The others don't: B solid black instead of the shared property; C does not share the property; D a different shape from the shared one; E does not share the property.
3. C — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." baker → bakery, so chef → kitchen.
4. C — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." actor → stage, so baker → bakery.
5. D — Each number is multiplied by 3. 54 × 3 = 162.
6. A — Each number is squared. 2 × 2 = 4.
7. E — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step and the figure doubles. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives E. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies a different rule than the top row shows; B applies the change twice; C applies only one of the two changes; D the bottom figure with no rule applied.
8. A — What the three figures share: all figures are the same shape. A shares it too. The others don't: B does not share the property; C solid black instead of the shared property; D a different shape from the shared one; E does not share the property.
9. C — The relationship is "part to its whole." wing → bird, so tooth → comb.
10. B — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." baker → bakery, so teacher → school.
11. A — These are square numbers: 2², 3², … Next is 6² = 36.
12. D — Each number is squared. 8 × 8 = 64.
13. A — In the top row, a smaller copy appears inside and the figure doubles. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives A. The others each make a specific mistake: B applies a different rule than the top row shows; C applies only one of the two changes; D the bottom figure with no rule applied; E copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure.
14. E — What the three figures share: all figures are small. E shares it too. The others don't: A too large; B does not share the property; C repeats an exemplar's shape but breaks the shared property; D does not share the property.
15. D — The relationship is "worker to their workplace." sailor → ship, so judge → court.
16. A — The relationship is "part to its whole." page → book, so wing → bird.
17. B — These are square numbers: 3², 4², … Next is 7² = 49.
18. D — Each number is squared. 7 × 7 = 49.
19. D — In the top row, the figure's fill darkens one step and the figure grows. Applying the same change to the bottom figure gives D. The others each make a specific mistake: A applies only one of the two changes; B copies the top row's result instead of transforming the bottom figure; C applies a different rule than the top row shows; E applies the change twice.
20. C — What the three figures share: all figures are small. C shares it too. The others don't: A repeats an exemplar's shape but breaks the shared property; B does not share the property; D too large; E does not share the property.
