Question

Find the missing figure, which follows the same pattern/rule and mark it as the answer.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

a triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first row,4 sides + 3 sides= 7 sides...

in the same way,

in the last row,3sides(triangle)+3sides=6sides(hexagon)

Answer 2

Given,

Refer figure.

To find,

Missing figure.

Solution,

From the given figure, it can be seen that the pattern/rule being followed is: the sum of the number of sides of the shape in the first and second image in any particular row gives the number of sides of the shape in the third image.

It may be observed that

For the first row,

4 (sides in square) + 3 (sides in triangle) = 7 (sides in heptagon)

For the second row,

3 (triangle) + 5 (pentagon) = 8 (octagon)

Thus, for the third row, similarly,

Let the number of sides in the required shape be x. So, according to the rule,

x (required) + 3 (triangle) = 6 (hexagon)

⇒ x + 3 = 6

⇒ x = 6 - 3

⇒ x = 3.

Since a shape with 3 sides is a triangle.

⇒ There should be a triangle in place of the question mark.

Therefore, the missing figure will be a triangle.
