As seen i nthe rectangle which has been extruded, we see that since the shape has 4 sides (4 sides of the rectangle), we have 4 extrusions of the wall. So, the key is finding the no. of walls/sides of the given shape. In the below image, I've marked the sides.
Considering the given weird shape, as beIng made of set of six 'Y' shapes with a center solid circle. Now, as shown in the below image, trying the count the number of sides of the shape will result in the following total
No. of Y shapes = 6
No. of sides for each 'Y' shape = 8 (marked from a1 to a8)
No. of extrusion for the six Y shapes = 6*8 = 48
No. of sides for the circular part = 6 (marked from b1 to b6)
Now that we have counted the no. of side extrusions, we are left with a surface at the top and another surface at the bottom, accounting to 2 no's
So, total no. of surfaces after extrusionn = 48 + 6 + 2 = 56

In each square, if we multiply the bottom 2 numbers we will end up getting the number given i nthe topb boxes. For ex., consider the first box, bottom multiplied no. = 6*6 = 36, which is given in the top rows of the box. Similarly in the fourth given pattern, 9*4 = 36, so, 6 is the answer.
4) 4
After the cut square portion of 3sm side is removed, all the four regions in the leftover part are of same shape and size. So, the area of the shaded part is 1/4th of the area of the leftover piece.
Actual Area of the square = 5*5 = 25
Area of the cut square of side 3 cm = 3*3 = 9
area of the leftover = 25-9 = 16
Area of the shaded part = 16/4 = 4 cm square centimeters
5) 12
As you can see in the below image, from west we can take any three starting points, marked as R1, R2 and R3. Considering only R1, we have four possible routes as shown by lines in different colors. Similarly, from R2 and R3, we can go in 4 diff routes from each start position. So, total possible rooutes are 4*3 = 12

Considering only the bottom most row with al lthe cubes in place, we can say
No. of total cubes = 8 rows X 8 columns = 64 cubes
so, we can say that 32 cubes are white and 32 are blue.
Considering second layer of cubes (from bottom), we observe that 4 cubes (even no.) are missing, so considering 2 as white and 2 as blue, we have the total no. of blue cubes = (32 - 2) = 30 cubes
Considering the third layer of cubes (from the bottom), we observe that 5 cubes (odd no.) are missing and since white cubes are visible at the edges, we can deduce that more no. of blue cubes are missing, so, we take 3 blue cubes out of 5 missing cubes. So, total no of blue cubes in the third layer = 32- 3 = 29
Considering the top layer (fourth layer), 16 cubes are missing, and again since white cubes are more visible at the edges, we consider more no. (16/2+1=9) of blue cubes missing, so blue cubes missing and so, no. of blue cubes available = 32 - 9 = 23
Finally, total no. of blue cubes in the structure = 32 + 30 + 29 + 23 = 114

Considering only one of the extended part, and as is clear from the below picture
No. of surfaces for each extra part = 8
No. of surfaces considering three parts = 8*3 = 24
If you're confused on the surfaces numbered 5 and 6 in the above picture, below picture might help you. Those surfaces are visible in different view.
Now, considering the central cylindrical cut part. As shown in the below image, you can visualize the top of the shape as being one flat surface marked as one in the below picture. Note that it is continuous as no breaks are visible.
Now, consider the bottom view of the above image, will look like the below image, try to identify the surfaces made by the central cut cylindircal portion. You may not be able to view all the surfaces as numbered by me in the image but just remember that the pattern formed by surfaces 1,2,3,4 (which are cleearly visible) repeat itself two more times (5,6,7,8) and finally (9,10,11,12).
The outer surface is again continuous and hence to be count as one surface, like wise inner surface adds to one surface
Total no. of surface = 24+1+12+2 = 39

Thanks to
Bhaskar Komara for sharing with us the detailed answer. He has out effort in making this.
Basically, the question is asking about the number of surfaces of the solid formed by the intersection of the given set of solids.
Additionally, check the below image for finding the number of surfaces
I have shown the no. of surfaces in the front direction only which will be 5.
Since the shape is symmetry, no. of surfaces from the backside = 5
No. of surfaces viewed from right side (considering cylindrical surface) = 5
No. of surfaces viewed from left side = 3
No. of surfaces in top view= 1
No. of surfaces in bottom view = 3
Total No. of surfaces = 5+5+5+3+1+3 = 22

Length LR = Length MR = Radius of the circle = 42/2 = 21
Length MN = Half of the circumference of the circle = 2*PI*r/2 = PI*r = (22/7)*21 = 66
Length NO = Half circumference - Length of the arc OQ = PI*r - r*theta = 66 -21*(30*PI/180) = 55.004 (approx)
note that 30 degree angle been convereted into radian which will be 30*PI/180 since 2*PI radians makes 360 degrees.
Similarly,
Length OP = Half circumference + Length of arc OT = 66 + r*theta = 66 + 21*(60*PI/180) = 87.992 (approx)
So, total length = 21 + 21 + 66 + 55.004 + 87.992 = 250.996

now for the second coondition,
DOG ~ CUF
observe each alphabet in both sides, (D,C) (O,U) and (G,F)
D comes next to B, and G comes next to F
Also, we know that vowels are (A,E,I,O,U) so the pair (O,U) is the consequtive vowel alphabets in the list of vowels
SO KIN ~ ?
K comes next to J, so the first alphabet should be J, similarly N comes next to M, so the last alphabet is M. The middle alphabet is given as I, in the vowel list a,e,i,o,u, O is the next alphabet to I,

As you can see in the below image, View Y is obtained when you rotate about the shown axis, around 180 degrees. So, the following has to be observed
1. Back face of view X is the front face of view Y
2. front face of view X is the back face of view Y
3. Right face of view X is the left face of view Y
4. Left face of view X is the right face of view Y
So, as shown by arrows, the square and the rectangle shapes on the right face of the view X, should be on the invisible surface (eft side) of view Y.
Now If you closely observe view Y and Z, the semi circle on the front face of Z is just flipped as that seen in Y. So, it means that Z is the rotated view of the Y (180 degrees) as shown in figure. So, the left side of View Y is the right side of the view Z, but note that the upper part of left Y will now be at the lower section of the right Z. This is shown with dotted line arrows.

Height of the wall = 10 feet
first attempt
Distance travelled by the green lizard = 3 - 1 = 2 feet
whereas, distance travelled by the red lizard = 4 -2 = 2 feet
So, in each attempt, both will have climbed the same distance.
fourth attempt
height touched by the green lizard = height reached by previous three attempts + maximu height it can reach = 2*3 + 3 =9,
although the green lizard has tried to move 3 feet, since it has not reached the top, it will slip by 1 feet, and so the net height reached by it is 9-1 = 8feet
In fourth attempt of red lizard,
height touched by the red lizard = height reached by previous three attempts + maximum height it can reach = 2*3 + 4 =10,
So, in the fourth attempt, it can reach the top of the wall and so there is no notion of slipping.

This is similar to tessellation problem. The best way is to find this is: at each step, try folding each surface to form back a cube and see in each folding, whether the red line is the folded surface is in line (at the same point) with the red line of the surface to which the current folded surfaces closes.
As an example, check the below image for option A, and notice that keeping surface 2 on the floor, if I try to fold surface 1 and surface 3, both will stand up right making contact at the edge denoted as 'a' circled. So, for the line to be continuous, the distance d1, and d2 should be equal, otherwise both won't be along the same point of the contact edge. Hope you got this. In option A, as you can see, it is straight forward that d1 is not equal to d2, and so we conclude that it is not correct.
While checking the other options, instead of finding for correct match, try to find a MIS-MATCH, which will save your time for solving. Hope you understood this.

Note that the links DH, DG, OD, OB, BG, are all equal. Assume that ends A and C are moved simultaenously with equal angles. If A is held and turned anti clockwise direction, then it is dragginb B to the left, which again drags G to the left. Similarly if we hold C and turn it clockwise direction as shown in the question, then we are trying to drag D to the left (just like A did with B), which again tries to drag G to the left. So, assuming equal movements of A and C, and since lengths are equal, it is clear that G tends to be dragged towards O, alongg the horizontal line joining both. Similarly H tends to move down along the vertical line through O.

Additional information about the painters, copied from wiki FYR
Vincent Vangogh - was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who is among the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art. In just over a decade he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, They include landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits, and are characterised by bold colours and dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork that contributed to the foundations of modern art.
Paul Gauguin was a French post-Impressionist artist. Underappreciated until after his death, Gauguin is now recognized for his experimental use of color and Synthetist style that were distinctly different from Impressionism. His work was influential to the French avant-garde and many modern artists, such as Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. He was an important figure in the Symbolist movement as a painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramist, and writer. His bold experimentation with color led directly to the Synthetist style of modern art, while his expression of the inherent meaning of the subjects in his paintings, under the influence of the cloisonnist style, paved the way to Primitivism and the return to the pastoral. He was also an influential proponent of wood engraving and woodcuts as art forms.
Rembrandt was a Dutch draughtsman, painter, and printmaker. An innovative and prolific master in three media, he is generally considered one of the greatest visual artists in the history of art and the most important in Dutch art history. Rembrandt's works depict a wide range of style and subject matter, from portraits and self-portraits to landscapes, genre scenes, allegorical and historical scenes, biblical and mythological themes as well as animal studies. His contributions to art came in a period of great wealth and cultural achievement that historians call the Dutch Golden Age. Rembrandt's portraits of his contemporaries, self-portraits and illustrations of scenes from the Bible are regarded as his greatest creative triumphs. Rembrandt's foremost contribution in the history of printmaking was his transformation of the etching process from a relatively new reproductive technique into a true art form, along with Jacques Callot.

There are usually 24 frames per second in a film. So, for a min, the number of frames would be 24*60 = 1440. Goven that in one minute, it took 90 feet projection of the film.
90 feet projection -> 1 min -> 1440 frames
90 feet projection -> 1440 frames
So, dividing both sides by 90,
1 foot projection -> 1440/90 frames
which is 16 frames
In 1 min, 90 feet of film is projected,

Fitts's law is a predictive model of human movement primarily used in human–computer interaction and ergonomics. This scientific law predicts that the time required to rapidly move to a target area is a function of the ratio between the distance to the target and the width of the target.
So, according to this law, for lesser time requirements, the distance to the target should be less and the width of the target area should be more. In the module X, when we press the letter 'Sa' in hindi, the circular menu pop up which was arranged such that all the variants of that letter are near to the center and the width/space occupied by them is more, compared to the configuration shown in Y, in which some of the letters are far from the initial touch position, and the width/space occupied by the variants are very less.
So ,time when operation module X will be comparatively less.

Since subject A should appear to the right, check the projections/views of the two cameras 3 and 4 and see which will fit the need. As shown in the below image, from 3, A will be to the right of the scene captured by camera 3. If you visualize or draw the view from camera 4, you will realize that A's face shall be positioned to the left of the captured or recorded scene by 4, which is not the requirement.
Similarly, for B to appear to the left camera 2 will position the face of B (because of its orientation) such that B will be in the left of the scene. This is shown in the below image. With 1, the captured or recorded scene will have B's face to the right of the scene (from the direction of view from 1) and hence it is not correct.
