DMAT Sample Questions with Worked Answers

Study worked examples and step-by-step solution shortcuts for DMAT figure matrix sequences, 5×5 Latin squares, mathematical equations, and vector calculations.

Visual Logic • Figure Sequences

Sample 1: Clockwise Perimeter Movement with Rotation

Stage 1: Triangle at top-left corner (0,0), pointing Up (0°).

Stage 2: Triangle moves 1 step Clockwise along perimeter to top-center (0,1), rotates 90° CW (pointing Right).

Stage 3: Triangle moves 1 step CW to (0,2), rotates 90° CW (pointing Down).

Stage 4: Triangle moves 1 step CW to top-right corner (0,3), rotates 90° CW (pointing Left).

Worked Solution:

Target Stage 5 (Left ?): Position = (1,3) [moves down right edge], Rotation = 0° (pointing Up).
Target Stage 6 (Right ?): Position = (2,3) [moves further down right edge], Rotation = 90° (pointing Right).

Deductive Logic • 5×5 Latin Square

Sample 2: Row-Column Constraint Propagation at Target '?'

Row 3 given values: [ A, B, ?, D, _ ]

Column 3 given values: [ C, E, ?, A, _ ]

Worked Solution:

• Letters already used in Row 3: A, B, D.
• Letters already used in Column 3: C, E, A.
• Together these clues exclude all five letters. No legal letter remains: the supplied clues are inconsistent. C cannot be placed because it already appears in Column 3.

Algebraic Logic • Linear Equation Systems

Sample 3: Multi-Variable Substitution System

Eq 1: 3 × C = A

Eq 2: A + C = 8

Eq 3: 2 × A + 2 × C = B

Goal: Find the value of B.

Worked Solution:

1. Substitute Eq 1 into Eq 2: 3C + C = 8 ⇒ 4C = 8 ⇒ C = 2.
2. Calculate A: A = 3 × 2 = 6.
3. Substitute into Eq 3: B = 2(6) + 2(2) = 12 + 4 = 16.
