BEAM
- SEPO
- BIGA
- BARAKILAN
Correct Answer

A. BIGA

Explanation

The correct answer is "BIGA" because when the letters in each row are rearranged in alphabetical order, "BIGA" is the only option that follows this pattern. In the first row, "ABEM" rearranges to "ABEM." In the second row, "EOPS" rearranges to "EOPS." In the third row, "AAIKLNBR" rearranges to "ABIKLNAR." Therefore, "BIGA" is the only option that matches the pattern.

Rate this question:
14.

PLUMB LINE
- ASINTADA
- HULOG
- BIENTO
Correct Answer

A. HULOG

Explanation

The correct answer is "HULOG" because a plumb line is a weighted string or cord that is used to determine verticality or the alignment of an object with the force of gravity. "Hulog" is the Filipino word for "fall" or "drop," which relates to the concept of the plumb line as it measures the vertical drop or alignment of an object. "Asintada" means "aligned" or "straight," and "biento" means "wind," but these words do not directly relate to the concept of a plumb line.
