Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given 6 rows of shapes, and each row has a repeating pattern. Our job is to look at the first few shapes in each row and figure out what comes next — filling in the blanks with the correct shapes in order.

---

Row 1: ○ □ ○ □ ○ □ _ _

Pattern: Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Circle, Square...

This is an alternating pattern: A-B-A-B-A-B...

So after the last square, it should be: Circle, then Square

→ Answer for Row 1: ○ □

---

Row 2: ○ △ ○ △ ○ △ _ _

Same as above — alternating circle and triangle.

After the last triangle, next should be: Circle, then Triangle

→ Answer for Row 2: ○ △

---

Row 3: ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇ _ _ _ _

Wait — all four shapes are diamonds (◇). So the pattern is just repeating the same shape over and over.

That means the next four should also be: ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

→ Answer for Row 3: ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

*(Note: The original shows only 4 diamonds followed by 4 blanks — so we fill all 4 blanks with diamonds.)*

Row 4: ▷ ☆ ▷ ☆ ▷ ☆ _ _

Alternating triangle and star.

Last shape is star → next should be: Triangle, then Star

→ Answer for Row 4: ▷ ☆

---

Row 5: □ ○ □ _ _ _ _ _

First three: Square, Circle, Square

Looks like it’s trying to alternate: Square, Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Circle...

So after the third shape (Square), next should be: Circle, Square, Circle, Square, Circle

But wait — there are 5 blanks! Let’s count:

Given: □ ○ □ → that’s 3 shapes.

Blanks: 5 spaces.

If pattern is A-B-A-B-A-B..., then:

Position 1: □
Position 2: ○
Position 3: □
Position 4: ○
Position 5: □
Position 6: ○
Position 7: □

So from position 4 to 8 (5 blanks): ○ □ ○ □ ○

→ Answer for Row 5: ○ □ ○ □ ○

Row 6: ◁◁ ◁◁ _ _ _ _ _ _

Wait — let’s look again.

It says: ◁◁ ◁◁ → that’s two groups of two left-pointing triangles.

Actually, looking closely: it’s “◁◁” then space then “◁◁” — so it’s two pairs of double triangles.

But actually, in the image, it’s written as: ◁◁ ◁◁ — meaning four triangles total? Or two sets?

Wait — re-examining: The sixth row is:

◁◁ ◁◁ _ _ _ _ _ _

That’s two groups of two triangles each — so maybe the pattern is “two triangles”, repeated.

So: Group 1: ◁◁
Group 2: ◁◁
Then next should be: ◁◁ ◁◁ ◁◁ — to fill 6 blanks? But there are 6 blanks.

Wait — if each “unit” is two triangles, and we’ve seen two units already, then next should be three more units? That would be 6 triangles.

But let’s think differently.

Maybe it’s simply repeating the same shape: all are left-pointing triangles.

In fact, looking at the image again — it’s actually:

◁◁ ◁◁ → which is four triangles total, all identical.

Then six blanks.

If the pattern is just “repeat the same shape”, then all blanks should be ◁.

But why group them as ◁◁? Maybe it’s not grouped — maybe it’s just a sequence of individual shapes.

Wait — perhaps it’s a typo or misread. Let me check the original description.

User wrote: “◁◁ ◁◁ _ _ _ _ _ _”

But in standard interpretation, if it’s a pattern of geometric shapes, and all are the same, then it’s a repetition.

Alternatively, maybe it’s meant to be: ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ → four triangles, then six blanks.

Pattern: all triangles → so next six are also triangles.

But to match the grouping, perhaps it’s “pairs” — so next should be three pairs: ◁◁ ◁◁ ◁◁

That would be 6 shapes — perfect for 6 blanks.

So: ◁◁ ◁◁ ◁◁

→ Answer for Row 6: ◁◁ ◁◁ ◁◁

But since the blanks are single lines, probably they expect individual shapes.

Looking back at other rows — each blank is for one shape.

In Row 3, 4 blanks → filled with 4 shapes.

In Row 5, 5 blanks → filled with 5 shapes.

In Row 6, 6 blanks → so 6 shapes.

And since all previous shapes in that row are ◁, the pattern is just repeating ◁.

So: ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁

But the given part is written as “◁◁ ◁◁” — which might just be visual spacing, not indicating groups.

To be safe, let’s assume each blank is one shape, and the pattern is all left-pointing triangles.

So fill all 6 blanks with ◁.

→ Answer for Row 6: ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁

Now, compiling all answers:

Row 1: ○ □
Row 2: ○ △
Row 3: ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
Row 4: ▷ ☆
Row 5: ○ □ ○ □ ○
Row 6: ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁

But let’s write them in order as per the worksheet.

Final Answers per row:

1. ○ □
2. ○ △
3. ◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
4. ▷ ☆
5. ○ □ ○ □ ○
6. ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁

Wait — for Row 6, if the original is “◁◁ ◁◁” meaning four triangles already, and six blanks, then yes, six more triangles.

But to match the format, we’ll list them as individual shapes.

Final Answer:

○ □
○ △
◇ ◇ ◇ ◇
▷ ☆
○ □ ○ □ ○
◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁ ◁
