To solve the analogies in the provided image, we need to identify the relationship between the pairs of symbols or shapes and apply that same relationship to the second pair. Let's analyze each row step by step.
---
Row 1: D : O :: C : ?
-
D is a letter, and
O is its corresponding circle (a shape).
- The relationship here is that
D is mapped to its circular counterpart.
- Similarly,
C should be mapped to its circular counterpart.
- The circular counterpart of
C is
O.
Answer: O

Row 2: □ : ■ :: ○ : ?
-
□ is a square, and
■ is a filled square.
- The relationship here is that the first symbol is an outline, and the second symbol is the filled version of the same shape.
- Similarly,
○ is an outline of a circle, so its filled version is
●.
Answer: ●
---
Row 3: □ : I :: ⊙ : ?
-
□ is a square, and
I is a vertical line segment.
- The relationship here is that the first symbol is a shape, and the second symbol is one of its sides or edges.
- Similarly,
⊙ is a circle, and one of its "sides" can be represented as a horizontal line segment (
_).
Answer: _
---
Row 4: △ : ▲ :: √ : ?
-
△ is a triangle, and
▲ is an upward-pointing triangle.
- The relationship here is that the first symbol is a shape, and the second symbol is the same shape rotated or oriented differently.
- Similarly,
√ is a square root symbol, and rotating it 90 degrees gives
√ (it remains the same because it is symmetrical).
Answer: √

Row 5: ⬤ : ♥ :: ? : ?
-
⬤ is a filled circle, and
♥ is a heart.
- The relationship here is that the first symbol is a simple geometric shape, and the second symbol is a more complex, decorative shape.
- A similar transformation could be applied to another simple shape. For example,
□ (square) could transform into
♦ (diamond).
Answer: □ : ♦
---
Row 6: ⊗ : 6 :: + : ?
-
⊗ is a multiplication symbol, and
6 is the result of multiplying two numbers (e.g., 2 × 3 = 6).
- The relationship here is that the first symbol represents an operation, and the second symbol represents the result of applying that operation.
- Similarly,
+ is an addition symbol. The result of adding two numbers (e.g., 2 + 3 = 5) is
5.
Answer: 5
---
Row 7: △ : 3 :: ? : ?
-
△ is a triangle, which has 3 sides.
- The relationship here is that the first symbol is a shape, and the second symbol is the number of sides of that shape.
- A similar transformation could be applied to another shape. For example,
□ (square) has 4 sides.
Answer: □ : 4

Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{O, \text{●}, \_, \sqrt{}, \text{□ : ♦}, 5, \text{□ : 4}}
\]
