Correct Option (b)
The sequence illustrates a specific pattern of positional change for both the triangle (Δ) and the circle (O) within the four quadrants of the larger circle.
- From Figure (I) to Figure (II), both the triangle and the circle advance by one quadrant in an anticlockwise direction.
- Subsequently, from Figure (II) to Figure (III), and consistently through all subsequent steps up to Figure (VI), both objects advance by two quadrants in an anticlockwise direction.
To determine the configuration for Figure (VII) based on Figure (VI):
- In Figure (VI), the triangle (Δ) is located in the Bottom-Right quadrant. Applying the rule of advancing two quadrants anticlockwise, its next position will be the Top-Left quadrant (Bottom-Right → Bottom-Left → Top-Left).
- In Figure (VI), the circle (O) is located in the Top-Left quadrant. Applying the rule of advancing two quadrants anticlockwise, its next position will be the Bottom-Right quadrant (Top-Left → Bottom-Left → Bottom-Right).
Therefore, Figure (VII) will depict the triangle (Δ) in the Top-Left quadrant and the circle (O) in the Bottom-Right quadrant, which corresponds to Option (b).
Incorrect Options:
Options (a), (c), and (d) do not conform to the established sequential pattern of anticlockwise movement for both the triangle and the circle as observed across the given series of figures.
