Question

Identify the figure that will complete the pattern shown. 

• A. Option a
• B. Option b
• C. Option c
• D. Option d

Hint:

In matrix-pattern questions, track the progressive addition of elements row-wise and column-wise.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Observe the pattern row-wise and column-wise in the given matrix.
Step 2: Each figure is formed by systematically adding line elements (square layers, diagonals, and central cross) from left to right and top to bottom.
Step 3: The bottom row shows completion of circular and dot elements, while the top-right figure already contains maximum line complexity.
Step 4: Hence, the missing top-left figure must contain: • All square layers, • Both diagonals, • Central cross structure, but without circular/dot elements.
Step 5: Among the options, only option (c) satisfies this requirement.
