Question
Sam is making a repeating pattern for the rule "Triangle and Square."
Which shape will come on 25th position?
- Triangle
- Square
- Rectangle
- Circle
Hint:
We are given a repeating pattern of two shapes made by Sam. The two shapes are triangle and square. The rule to write shapes is “Triangle and Square”. We are asked to find the shape at 25th place.
The correct answer is: Triangle
The given pattern In words is Triangle, Square, Triangle, Square, Triangle, Square
We are asked to find the shape at the 25th place.
The rule used to write the pattern is “Triangle and Square”.
Two shapes are repeating. And, the second shape is a square.
So, all multiples of two have square in their position.
We have to find the shape at 25th place. It is not a multiple of 2.
The number closest to 25 which is a multiple of 2 is 24. So, at 24th position there will be a square.
25 is one place after 24. The shape which will come one place after square is a triangle.
So, the shape at the 24th place is a triangle.
While solving such questions, we have to be careful about the order of the sequence.
