Completing Patterns - Example 6

Three different rules apply here.

1. Quadrants: From left to right: the quadrant turns clockwise by 45° from field 1 to field 2. The same applies from field 2 to field 3. From top to bottom: the quadrant turns counter-clockwise by 45° from field 1 to field 2, and counter-clockwise by 90° from field 2 to field 3.

2. Lines with dots: from left to right: the lines with dots are at the same location in all three fields. From top to bottom: the lines with the dots turn clockwise by 90°.

3. Arrows: from top to bottom: the arrow turns clockwise by 45° from field 1 to field 2. From left to right, no rule can be established.

What is the solution?

1. The quadrant has to be at the upper left.

2. The line with the dot has to point from the middle towards the bottom left.

3. The arrow has to point from the middle downwards.

Therefor the correct solution is C.
