Let's solve the problem step by step.
We are given a sequence of shapes in each row, and we need to
determine the pattern and then
draw the shape that comes next in each row.

Row 1:
O △ O △ O
- Pattern: Alternating between circle (O) and triangle (△)
- Sequence: O, △, O, △, O
- Next should be:
△
✔ Answer: Triangle (△)
---
Row 2:
★ ○ ★ ○ ★
- Pattern: Alternating between star (★) and circle (○)
- Sequence: ★, ○, ★, ○, ★
- Next should be:
○
✔ Answer: Circle (○)

Row 3:
□ □ □ □ □
- All shapes are squares.
- Pattern: Repeating square
- Next should be:
□
✔ Answer: Square (□)

Row 7:
● ○ ● ○ ●
- Pattern: Alternating between filled circle (●) and empty circle (○)
- Sequence: ●, ○, ●, ○, ●
- Next should be:
○
✔ Answer: Empty circle (○)

Final Answers:
1. △
2. ○
3. □
4. ▭
5. △
6. ○
7. ○
