Question: If \'CIRCLE\' is coded as \'DJSDFM\', what is the code for \'SQUARE\'?
Options:
TROFBS
TROFAR
TROFAT
TROFAS
Correct Answer: TROFBS
Solution:
Each letter is shifted by +1: C->D, I->J, R->S, C->D, L->M, E->F. Thus, SQUARE becomes TROFBS.

If 'CIRCLE' is coded as 'DJSDFM', what is the code for 'SQUARE'?
Step 1: Identify the letters in the word 'CIRCLE'. They are C, I, R, C, L, E.
Step 2: Notice how each letter is shifted to create the code 'DJSDFM'.
Step 3: For each letter in 'CIRCLE', add 1 to its position in the alphabet: C (3) becomes D (4), I (9) becomes J (10), R (18) becomes S (19), C (3) becomes D (4), L (12) becomes M (13), E (5) becomes F (6).
Step 4: Write down the new letters: D, J, S, D, M, F.
Step 5: Now, apply the same shift to the word 'SQUARE'. The letters are S, Q, U, A, R, E.
Step 6: Shift each letter by +1: S (19) becomes T (20), Q (17) becomes R (18), U (21) becomes V (22), A (1) becomes B (2), R (18) becomes S (19), E (5) becomes F (6).
Step 7: Write down the new letters for 'SQUARE': T, R, V, B, S, F.
Step 8: Combine the new letters to get the final code: 'TRVBSF'.
Letter Shifting – The question tests the ability to recognize a pattern in letter encoding, specifically shifting each letter by a fixed number in the alphabet.
