Applying rotated-270 transformation yields:
C F I
B E H
A D G

Question 2

In matrix: 1 4 7 2 5 8 3 6 9 Which row has the maximum sum?
Row sums: Row1=12, Row2=15, Row3=18. Maximum is Row 3 with sum 18

Question 3

In matrix: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 What is the sum of middle column?
The sum of middle column: 2 + 5 + 8 = 15

Question 4

In the 4×4 matrix: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P If we follow the last column path (Start at (1,4) and move down), what word do we get?
Following the last column path: (1,4)=D (2,4)=H (3,4)=L (4,4)=P → DHLP

Question 5

Find the missing element (?) in this matrix pattern: 2 4 6 4 8 12 6 12 ? What should replace the '?'?
Pattern: multiplication table pattern

Step 1: First row: multiples of 2 (2×1, 2×2, 2×3)
Step 2: Second row: multiples of 4 (4×1, 4×2, 4×3)
Step 3: Third row: multiples of 6 (6×1, 6×2, 6×3)
Step 4: Missing cell is 6×3 = 18
Pattern: Matrix[i][j] = (row_value) × (j+1)

Answer: 18

Question 6

If A=0001, B=0010, C=0011, D=0100, E=0101, F=0110, G=0111, H=1000, I=1001, J=1010, K=1011, L=1100 (binary sequence 1-12), then 'HEAD' in binary?
Binary coding: H=1000 + E=0101 + A=0001 + D=0100 = 1000010100010100

Question 7

In a 6×6 matrix (row0-5, col0-5) containing letters A-Z and digits 0-9 in row-major order, encode 'ENCODE' by giving row and column numbers concatenated.
Position mapping: E→(0,4) N→(2,1) C→(0,2) O→(2,2) D→(0,3) E→(0,4) → 042102220304

Question 8

In a 5×5 matrix: Row1: A B C D E Row2: F G H I J Row3: K L M N O Row4: P Q R S T Row5: U V W X Y 'CODE' is coded as (row,col) combination. What is the code?
Matrix positions: C=(1,3) O=(3,5) D=(1,4) E=(1,5) → Combined code: 13351415

Question 9

In matrix: 2 9 4 7 5 3 6 1 8 Which column has the maximum sum?
Column sums: Col1=15, Col2=15, Col3=15. Maximum is Column 1 with sum 15

Question 10

Find the missing element (?) in this matrix pattern: 2 4 6 4 8 12 6 12 ? What should replace the '?'?
Pattern: multiplication table pattern

Step 1: First row: multiples of 2 (2×1, 2×2, 2×3)
Step 2: Second row: multiples of 4 (4×1, 4×2, 4×3)
Step 3: Third row: multiples of 6 (6×1, 6×2, 6×3)
Step 4: Missing cell is 6×3 = 18
Pattern: Matrix[i][j] = (row_value) × (j+1)

Answer: 18

Question 11

In matrix: 1 4 7 2 5 8 3 6 9 Which row has the minimum sum?
Row sums: Row1=12, Row2=15, Row3=18. Minimum is Row 1 with sum 12

Question 12

If A=0001, B=0010, C=0011, D=0100, E=0101, F=0110, G=0111, H=1000, I=1001, J=1010, K=1011, L=1100 (binary sequence 1-12), then 'BAD' in binary?
Binary coding: B=0010 + A=0001 + D=0100 = 001000010100

Question 13

Following the first column path: (1,1)=A (2,1)=E (3,1)=I (4,1)=M → AEIM

Question 14

In matrix: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 What is the sum of anti-diagonal?
The sum of anti-diagonal: 3 + 5 + 7 = 15

Question 15

In pattern matrix: * @ # $ @ # $ * # $ * @ $ * @ # Code 'ABCD' using A=col1, B=col2, C=col3, D=col4, row advances sequentially (row0, row1, row2, row3, then repeats)?
Coding process: A→* B→# C→* D→# = *#*#

Question 16

Find the missing element (?) in this matrix pattern: 2 4 6 4 8 12 6 12 ? What should replace the '?'?
Pattern: multiplication table pattern

Step 1: First row: multiples of 2 (2×1, 2×2, 2×3)
Step 2: Second row: multiples of 4 (4×1, 4×2, 4×3)
Step 3: Third row: multiples of 6 (6×1, 6×2, 6×3)
Step 4: Missing cell is 6×3 = 18
Pattern: Matrix[i][j] = (row_value) × (j+1)

Answer: 18

Question 17

Using this 5×5 cipher matrix: ★ ♠ ♣ ♥ ♦ ♣ ♥ ♦ ★ ♠ ♦ ★ ♠ ♣ ♥ ♠ ♣ ♥ ♦ ★ ♥ ♦ ★ ♠ ♣ Letters A-T map to cells in row-major order (A→★, B→♠, C→♣, D→♥, E→♦, etc.) What is the encoded form of 'CODE'?
Encoding 'CODE': C→♣ O→♥ D→♥ E→♦ = ♣♥♥♦

Question 18

In matrix: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 What is the sum of main diagonal?
The sum of main diagonal: 1 + 5 + 9 = 15

Question 19

Original matrix: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 After rotated-180 transformation, the matrix becomes:
Applying rotated-180 transformation yields:
9 8 7
6 5 4
3 2 1
