Question
Sam is making a repeating pattern for the rule "Triangle, Square, Circle, and Rectangle."
The 32nd shape in the pattern is
- Triangle
- Square
- Rectangle
- Circle
Hint:
We are given a repeating pattern of four shapes made by Sam. The three shapes are triangle, square, circle and rectangle. The rule to write shapes is “Triangle, Square, Circle and rectangle”. We are asked to find the shape at 32th place.
The correct answer is: Rectangle
The given pattern in words is Triangle, Square, Circle, Rectangle, Triangle, Square, Circle, Rectangle
We are asked to find the shape at the 32th place.
The rule used to write the pattern is “ Triangle, Square, Circle, Rectangle”.
Four shapes are repeating. And, the fourth shape is a rectangle.
So, all multiples of four will have rectangle in their position.
We have to find the shape at 32th place. It is a multiple of 4.
4 × 8 = 32
The 32th place will have rectangle.
So, the shape at the 32th place is a rectangle.
While solving the question, we have to be careful about the order of the sequence.
