To solve this problem, we need to look at each row of shapes and find the repeating pattern. Then, we will continue that pattern to fill in the blanks.
Let's break down each row one by one:
1.
Row 1: The pattern is `Triangle, Circle, Triangle, Circle`.
* The repeating unit is "Triangle, Circle".
* To continue, we just repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Triangle, Circle.
2.
Row 2: The pattern is `Triangle, Triangle, Square, Triangle, Triangle, Square`.
* The repeating unit is "Triangle, Triangle, Square".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Triangle, Triangle, Square.
3.
Row 3: The pattern is `Up Arrow, Down Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow`.
* The repeating unit is "Up Arrow, Down Arrow".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Up Arrow, Down Arrow.
4.
Row 4: The pattern is `Triangle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle, Triangle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle`.
* The repeating unit is "Triangle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Triangle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle.
5.
Row 5: The pattern is `Up Arrow, Down Arrow`.
* The repeating unit is "Up Arrow, Down Arrow".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Up Arrow, Down Arrow.
6.
Row 6: The pattern is `Circle, Triangle, Square, Circle, Triangle, Square`.
* The repeating unit is "Circle, Triangle, Square".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Circle, Triangle, Square.
7.
Row 7: The pattern is `Diamond, Square, Diamond, Square, Diamond, Square`.
* The repeating unit is "Diamond, Square".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Diamond, Square.
8.
Row 8: The pattern is `Up Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow, Up Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow`.
* The repeating unit is "Up Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow".
* To continue, we repeat that unit.
* Next shapes:
Up Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow.
Final Answer:
Here are the shapes to complete each pattern, from top to bottom:
1. Triangle, Circle
2. Triangle, Triangle, Square
3. Up Arrow, Down Arrow
4. Triangle, Triangle, Inverted Triangle
5. Up Arrow, Down Arrow
6. Circle, Triangle, Square
7. Diamond, Square
8. Up Arrow, Up Arrow, Down Arrow
