Question

Choose the set of figures which follows the given rule.
Rule: Closed figure losing their sides and open figures gaining their sides.

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

3

The answer is option $C$

In all the given figures the outer hexagon is the closed figure and hence it should progressively lose a side. Similarly the inner figure should keep gaining a side

In Figure 1, the hexagon loses its side only till the 2nd step and in the 3rd step onwards it remains the same. Also after the 3rd step the inner figure has no more sides to gain as it already becomes a closed figure. Hence this is not an option

In Figure 2, the heagon never loses a side. Hence this is also not an option

In Figure 4, the hexagon loses a side only till the 3rd step and after that it no longer loses a side

Only in Figure 3, does the hexagon progressively loses a side and the inner figure gains a side
