OK, what did ya'll think ANLDEGN was? All I could come up with was Danglen which I decided was a town somewhere. And what about the 2 cars driving 6 miles then turning left and going 8 miles? How far apart were they?

For some reason that one jumped out at me - England. Dh was totally stumped by it and ended up just choosing animal as his answer. :)
The car one is twenty miles. If you draw it out and then connect the two points you can figure out the side of the missing triangle and then add them together. (Does that even make sense how I described it?)
What about the one where the guy likes certain numbers and dislikes others?????? NO clue!!! ?( Someone please help!! :)
Or what about the one where you had to fill in the missing square on the bottom of the grid with a big shape and a small shape/icon???
The guy liked squares (30x30, 40x40). The one with the shapes that had two choices with little triangle arrow things got me too. ????

England!!! I've never been good at those types of puzzles. I got the car one, but I wasn't sure they were allowed to drive off road LOL! The shape was the square within a square with a line from upper right to lower left. The colors starting from left to right were pink, green, grey, gold.

I got those two. There's one other grid type one with circles and squares as options with small icons above them....?

I think I chose a filled in circle with a cross over it for that one. I believe the pattern was the bottom row was all circles, the middle row was squares and the top row was ovals (except the middle square of the top rowwhich was cross hatched out). And each row alternated filled and not filled shapes.

That's what I picked, too but for some reason it stumped me. Thanks!! :)

For the Q with 2 of the answers having a line between a tiangle and another shape (sort of looked like a single shape with an arrow pointing from it) but all of the other pairs were overlapping - I went with one of the pairs attached with a line. All of the other pairs, including the other pair attached with a line, had one shape larger than the other. Only one pair had both shapes about the same size.
For the tic tac toe board with pairs of shapes and top middle square slashed out. I did the same as DianeP. Filled in circle topped by a +. Each row had a shpae on the bottom alternating filled in or not. Each row had a shape/icon appearing only once in that row.
I agree with KarlaB one 20 miles distance between the two cars. 6 squared + 8 squared = x squared = 10. That's the distance of one car from the starting point. Multiple by 2. Its like two 90 degree triangles meeting.
For the checker board looking one (16 spaces with 4 dots) - It looked to me like 2 of the dots didn't move. One dot moved from the bottom up vertically one spot in each picture. Another dot moved from upper left to the lower right spot one diagonal move each picture.
For the split colored squares - the center colors flipped diagonally. blue with white for the half circle and pink with green for the answer. The outer colors changed clockwise giving gray and yellow (?).
The man liking/disliking numbers stumped me. So what was the final answer? I can't even remember the options!
