🔍 Pattern Recognition Strategy:

We look for:
- Repeating sequence of shapes (square, circle, star)
- Repeating sequence of colors
- Both shape and color may follow a cycle

Let’s go through each one:

---

1.

Sequence:
🟩 Square → 🟪 Circle → 🟦 Star → 🟩 Square → ___

Pattern:
Square (pink), Circle (purple), Star (teal), Square (pink) — then repeats?

Wait: First shape is pink square, then purple circle, teal star, then again pink square.

So far:
Pink Square → Purple Circle → Teal Star → Pink Square

This suggests the pattern might be:
[Pink Square, Purple Circle, Teal Star] → repeat?

But after the 4th shape (pink square), we're at the start of a new cycle.

So next should be: Purple Circle, then Teal Star, etc.

But only two options are given:
👉 Option: Purple Circle + Pink Square

Since the last shape was Pink Square, next should be Purple Circle.

✔ So the next shape is Purple Circle.

> ✔ Answer: Purple Circle

2.

Sequence:
🔴 Circle → 🟦 Star → 🟨 Square → 🔴 Circle → ___

Pattern:
Circle (red), Star (teal), Square (orange), Circle (red)

So: Red Circle → Teal Star → Orange Square → Red Circle

It repeats every 3 shapes? Wait:
1. Red Circle
2. Teal Star
3. Orange Square
4. Red Circle ← same as first

So it seems like the pattern is:
Red Circle → Teal Star → Orange Square → Red Circle → ?

Now it's back to Red Circle, so next should be Teal Star, then Orange Square, etc.

Given options:
👉 Teal Star + Orange Square

We need only one shape next — so Teal Star

✔ Answer: Teal Star

3.
