Blood relation test can be classified into three categories 

1. Introduction type
2. Identification type and
3. Coded blood relation

1.Blood relation questions Introduction type 

In this type of questions one person introduces another.

Eg1:Introducing Rajesh,Diya said "His brother's father, is the only son of my grand father".How is Diya related to Rajesh?

To solve this type of question break the sentence at "is" and resolve two sides separately and equate to get the final answer.

Resolving at "is" we get two halves , "His brother's father" and "the only son of my grand father"

Left half-His brother's father ->His father

Right-the only son of my grand father->Father(Diya's father).

His father=Diya's father.

So,answer is "Diya is the sister of Rajesh"

Eg2: Tom introduces Riya as the daughter of the only son of my father’s wife. How is Riya related to Tom?

Give question is same as  Tom introduces Riya."Riya is the daughter of the only son of my father’s wife".So while solving this kind of problems break the sentence at "as".

Left half-Riya.

Righthalf-daughter of the only son of my father’s wife.

Resolve the right half from right to left

my father’s wife->mother

the only son of mother->Tom himslef

Daughter of Tom->daughter

Riya=daughter

So answer is Riya is the daughter of Tom
