Select the figure that is embedded as a part of the main figure (X). (Rotation is NOT allowed.)





Scan for unique boundary features, such as the specific curve and the straight horizontal line segment in Option C, and trace them against the main figure.

Analyze the target figure
Option C shows a shape composed of a vertical line on the left, a horizontal line extending from its bottom, and a curved arc originating from the top of the vertical line that arches over to the right and connects back down.
Locate in main figure (X)
Looking at the central part of the main figure (X), we can clearly identify a structure where a vertical segment is joined to a horizontal line at its base. Directly above this, a curved arc extends from the upper part of the vertical line, curves towards the right side of the figure, and terminates just above the horizontal base line, perfectly matching the geometry in Option C.
A: The triangle shape is not present in the main figure. B: The quadrilateral shape with an angular corner does not exist as a contained unit. D: The circle with a vertical line extending outward is not present in the main figure.
C is correct because the exact combination of the vertical line, the horizontal base, and the specific curved arch is uniquely embedded in the central-right portion of the main figure (X).
When solving embedded figures, always look for the most 'distinguishing' or 'unique' part of the figure (like a specific curve or angle) first, as it is much easier to locate than simple lines or squares.
