Solution
If we observe the pattern carefully, the outer shape i.e. "pentagon" is same throughout.
Now, let us look at the blue shapes present inside.
In each stage, the number of sides of the next shape is 1 less than the previous shape.
So following the same pattern, the next shape must have 3 sides.
We know that only a triangle has 3 sides.
∴ The next shape in the pattern will be a triangle.
