Let's solve the problem step by step.
The task is to
identify and copy the exact repeating pattern from each sequence into the blank space provided below it.
---
1. Pattern: □ ○ □ ○ □ ○ □ ○
- Look at the sequence:
Square (□), Circle (○), Square (□), Circle (○), ...
This alternates between square and circle.
- The
repeating unit is:
□ ○
- So, we need to write:
□ ○ □ ○ □ ○ □ ○
✔ Answer for #1:
`□ ○ □ ○ □ ○ □ ○`

2. Pattern: + ▽ △ + ▽ △ + ▽ △
- Sequence: Plus sign (+), Down triangle (▽), Up triangle (△), then repeats.
- The
repeating unit is:
+ ▽ △
- It repeats three times in the given sequence.
✔ Answer for #2:
`+ ▽ △ + ▽ △ + ▽ △`

3. Pattern: ◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★
- Sequence: Left-pointing triangle (◁), Star (★), repeated.
- The
repeating unit is:
◁ ★
- Alternates between triangle and star.
✔ Answer for #3:
`◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★`

4. Pattern: ◇ ▽ ◇ △ ◇ ▽ ◇ △
- Let’s break this down:
- First: ◇ ▽
- Then: ◇ △
- Then: ◇ ▽
- Then: ◇ △
Wait — let’s look more carefully:
Sequence:
1. ◇
2. ▽
3. ◇
4. △
5. ◇
6. ▽
7. ◇
8. △
So:
- Positions 1–4: ◇ ▽ ◇ △
- Positions 5–8: ◇ ▽ ◇ △
Ah! So the
repeating unit is:
◇ ▽ ◇ △
It repeats twice.
✔ Answer for #4:
`◇ ▽ ◇ △ ◇ ▽ ◇ △`
---
✔ Final Answers:
1. `□ ○ □ ○ □ ○ □ ○`
2. `+ ▽ △ + ▽ △ + ▽ △`
3. `◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★ ◁ ★`
4. `◇ ▽ ◇ △ ◇ ▽ ◇ △`

Note: These are all
repeating patterns, not growing ones. The task asks to "copy the exact repeating patterns" — so we just reproduce the full sequence as shown.
You can now copy these answers into the boxes on the worksheet.
