Question:

Select a figure from the given four alternatives which when placed in the blank space of the given figure would complete the pattern.

Select a figure from the given four alternatives

Show Hint

In figure series, watch for a consistent transformation in shapes or positions—like outer to inner rotation or shape shifts. Patterns often repeat cyclically.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Let's analyze the pattern row-wise:

First figure: Outer shape – Triangle, Inner shape – Circle

Second figure: Outer shape – Square, Inner shape – Triangle

Third figure (missing): Outer shape – Circle, Inner shape – Square

Hence, we observe a cyclic shift in shapes across positions. The inner shape of one figure becomes the outer shape in the next:
Triangle → Square → Circle → Triangle (cycle continues)

Now we apply this logic:
In 1st figure: Triangle (outer), Circle (inner)
In 2nd figure: Square (outer), Triangle (inner) 

So, 3rd figure must be: Circle (outer), Square (inner) Only option (C) satisfies this condition.
