From figures (ii) and (iii), we conclude that 1, 6, 3 and 4 dots lie adjacent to 5 dots. Therefore, 2 dots must lie opposite 5 dots. Conversely, 5 dots must lie opposite 2 dots.
The six faces of a dice have been marked with alphabets A, B, C, D, E and F respectively. This dice is rolled down three times. The three positions are shown as: Find the alphabet opposite
From figures (ii) and (iii), we conclude that the alphabets C, D, B and F appear adjacent to the alphabet E. Therefore, the alphabet A appears opposite E. Conversely, E appears opposite
From figures (i) and (ii), we conclude that the numbers 1, 4, 3 and 5 lie adjacent to the number 6. Clearly, the number 2 lies opposite 6 and conversely 6 lies opposite 2.
Three different positions X, Y and Z of a dice are shown in the figures given below. Which of the hidden numbers adjacent to 5 in position X is/are common to the hidden numbers adjacent to 5 in position Z? Since 3 lies opposite 5 (as analysed above), it follows that 1, 4, 6 and 2 lie adjacent to 5. Out of these four numbers, the hidden numbers adjacent to 5 in position X are 6 and 2 and the hidden numbers adjacent to 5 in position Z are 1 and 4. Clearly, there is no number common.
From positions X and Y we conclude that 1, 5, 6 and 3 lie adjacent to 4. Therefore, 2 must lie opposite 4. From positions Y and Z we conclude that 4, 3, 2 and 5 lie adjacent to 6. Therefore, 1 must lie opposite 6. Thus, 2 lies opposite 4, 1 lies opposite 6 and consequently 5 lies opposite 3.
In a dice a, b, c and d are written on the adjacent faces, in a clockwise order and e and f at the top and bottom. When c is at the top, what will be at the bottom?
Clearly, the six faces are labelled as Face I -> a, Face IV -> b, Face III -> c, Face II -> d, Face V -> e, Face VI -> f Therefore 'a' appears opposite 'c'. Hence, when 'c' is at the top, then 'a' will be at the bottom.
