Stop doing that. The moment you <strong>draw a tiny family tree<\/strong>, every question \u2014 single relation, coded, or &#8220;pointing to a photograph&#8221; \u2014 turns into a picture you can simply read. This guide gives you one visual method that works everywhere, plus a complete <strong>English\u2013Hindi relation table<\/strong> you won&#8217;t find in the usual guides. It works for SSC CGL and every other government exam that asks these questions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sp-answer-box\">\n<p><strong>Quick answer:<\/strong> Solve every blood relation question by drawing a <strong>family tree<\/strong> using a fixed notation \u2014 a square for male, a circle for female, a horizontal line for marriage, and a vertical line from parent to child. Place each person as you read the sentence, then read the final relation straight off the diagram. Never assume gender unless it&#8217;s stated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sp-note\">\n<p><strong>On this page:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#what\">What blood relation questions test<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#notation\">The universal notation (turn any sentence into a tree)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#reckoner\">Relation ready-reckoner \u2014 every relation in English &amp; Hindi<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#t1\">Type 1 \u2014 Single-relation questions<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#t2\">Type 2 \u2014 Coded blood relations<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#t3\">Type 3 \u2014 Pointing to a photograph<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#t4\">Type 4 \u2014 Dialogue &amp; jumbled family<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#generation\">The generation-level shortcut<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#speed\">Speed tips<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#pyq\">Most-repeated patterns<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#mistakes\">Common mistakes that cost marks<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#practice\">Practice mini-set (self-test)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#faq\">FAQs<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"what\">What blood relation questions test<\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;re given a chain of relationships and asked how two people are connected.

Draw as you read.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example.<\/strong> A is the mother of B. C is the father of B. B is the brother of D. How is C related to D?<br \/>\nPlace A (mother, circle) and C (father, square) as a married pair. B and D are children of this pair (B is D&#8217;s brother, so same parents). D is C&#8217;s child \u2192 <strong>C is the father of D<\/strong>.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/superpahal.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Family-Tree-2.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 13.5px; color: #4a5468; margin: 0 0 22px; font-style: italic;\">D&#8217;s gender isn&#8217;t given (dashed) \u2014 but C is still D&#8217;s father regardless.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"t2\">Type 2 \u2014 Coded blood relations<\/h2>\n<p>Symbols replace the relationship words. The exam always gives you a legend \u2014 decode it symbol by symbol, then draw.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example legend:<\/strong> &#8220;P \u00d7 Q&#8221; = P is the father of Q \u00b7 &#8220;P + Q&#8221; = P is the sister of Q \u00b7 &#8220;P \u2212 Q&#8221; = P is the mother of Q \u00b7 &#8220;P \u00f7 Q&#8221; = P is the brother of Q.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Question:<\/strong> What does &#8220;A \u00d7 B \u00f7 C&#8221; tell you about A and C?<br \/>\n&#8220;A \u00d7 B&#8221; \u2192 A is the father of B. &#8220;B \u00f7 C&#8221; \u2192 B is the brother of C, so B and C are siblings with the same parents. Therefore A is also the father of C \u2192 <strong>A is the father of C<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sp-note\" style=\"background: #eef6ff; border-left: 5px solid #2a6fdb;\">\n<p><strong>Golden habit:<\/strong> read a coded chain strictly left to right, converting each symbol into a line on your tree before moving on. Never try to decode the whole string in your head.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"t3\">Type 3 \u2014 Pointing to a photograph<\/h2>\n<p>Here the speaker describes someone in a photo. The rule: <strong>start from the speaker and move outward exactly as the sentence says.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Example.<\/strong> Pointing to a photograph, Neha said, &#8220;This man&#8217;s son is my father&#8217;s brother.&#8221; How is the man related to Neha?<br \/>\n&#8220;My father&#8217;s brother&#8221; is Neha&#8217;s paternal uncle. That uncle is &#8220;this man&#8217;s son&#8221; \u2014 so the man is the uncle&#8217;s father. The uncle&#8217;s father is also Neha&#8217;s father&#8217;s father \u2192 <strong>the man is Neha&#8217;s grandfather (dada)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sp-note\" style=\"background: #fef3e8; border-left: 5px solid #f4811f;\">\n<p><strong>Watch the direction.<\/strong> &#8220;X&#8217;s son&#8221; means go <em>down<\/em> a generation from X; &#8220;X&#8217;s father&#8221; means go <em>up<\/em>. Mixing these up is the number-one error in photo questions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"t4\">Type 4 \u2014 Dialogue &amp; jumbled family<\/h2>\n<p>Longer puzzles give several statements about a group. Don&#8217;t solve linearly \u2014 <strong>build one big tree<\/strong>, adding each person as a new box or circle, and only read the answer once everyone is placed. Fix genders as they&#8217;re stated, and leave a dashed shape for anyone whose gender is unknown so you don&#8217;t assume it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sp-cta\">\n<h3>Turn this method into exam speed \ud83c\udfaf<\/h3>\n<p>Blood relations are easy marks \u2014 but only if you can draw the tree in seconds under pressure.
