BP979 It is possible to deduce the contents of the missing square vs. not so.
?
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

All examples show grids of squares with an image in each square, such that there is some "rule" the images within the grid obey. The "rule" can be about how the images relate to their neighbors, it can involve the position of the images in the grid, and it can involve properties of the grid considered as a whole. One square from somewhere along the edge of the grid is removed.


Intentionally left out of this Bongard Problem (or left as sorted ambiguously) are cases in which there is no clear rule, or it is not possible to deduce what the intended rule is without seeing more squares (e.g. EX8097). Due to this choice to omit those kinds of examples from the right, another acceptable solution is "it is possible to deduce the contents of the missing square once the underlying rule is understood vs. not so."

BP14 All big individual figures vs. all small individual figures.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

All examples in this Problem show one or more connected figures made up of lines.

Some big shapes and some small shapes would be ambiguous.

BP335 Tessellates the plane vs. does not tessellate the plane.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

EX7152 is an example of a shape than can be stretched in such a way that it no longer tessellates the plane. This is a property that is only exhibited by shapes that tessellate with rotated copies of themselves. - Leo Crabbe, Mar 05 2021
