The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on... So, 22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.
1, 2, 5 are figures that have patterns formed from four lines curved in a concave direction. 3, 7, 8 are figures that have patterns formed from four lines curved in a convex direction. 4, 6, 9 are figures that have patterns formed from these straight lines.
1, 6, 9 are figures which are half shaded by slanting lines. 2, 4, 7 are all divided into equal parts (either three or four parts) by straight lines and also have a black circle at the centre. 3, 5, 8 have similar designs and have their four corners shaded black.
3, 5, 8 have similar designs (four leaves placed close to a small circle and forming a symmetrical design at the centre of the figure). 2, 6, 9 have similar designs (three of the corners of the main figure are shaded black and there is a pattern formed around a ‘+’ sign at the centre of the figure). 1, 4, 7 have similar designs (there are four small circles at(the corners of the main figure and there is a wheel shaped element at the centre of the figure).
