\nThe correct answer is B, which shows a Square with a Vertical line.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Analyze the pattern in the figure matrix.
\n– Observe the shapes in each row:
\n – Row 1: Circle, Square, Triangle
\n – Row 2: Square, Triangle, Circle
\n – Row 3: Triangle, Circle, ?
\n– The sequence of shapes in each row appears to be a cyclic permutation of (Circle, Square, Triangle). Following this pattern, Row 3 should be (Triangle, Circle, Square).
\n– Observe the orientation of the internal line in each row:
\n – Row 1: Vertical, Horizontal, Vertical
\n – Row 2: Horizontal, Vertical, Horizontal
\n– Observe the orientation of the internal line in each column:
\n – Column 1: Vertical, Horizontal, Vertical
\n – Column 2: Horizontal, Vertical, Horizontal
\n – Column 3: Vertical, Horizontal, ?
\n– The pattern in columns 1 and 2 for line orientation is (V, H, V) and (H, V, H). Extending this pattern to Column 3 (starting with Vertical and Horizontal in the first two rows), the orientation in the third row of Column 3 should be Vertical.
\n– Combining the shape and line orientation for the missing figure (Row 3, Column 3): The shape is Square and the line orientation is Vertical.
\n<\/section>\n
\nThe pattern for shapes can be seen as moving one position right cyclically (Circle -> Square -> Triangle -> Circle). The pattern for line orientation alternates within rows and columns. The combination of these two patterns determines the missing figure.
