Consider a sequence of figures inside a square frame where a shaded circle shifts clockwise from corner to corner at each consecutive step, while the count of internal indicator lines increases sequentially by . If the first three frames contain , , and lines respectively, which option accurately represents the figure in the series?
- AA
- BB
- CC
- DD
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Following the twin rules of the series:
1. Positional Shift: The shaded circle moves clockwise. Following the position, the next movement places it in the bottom-right corner.
2. Element Accumulation: The line elements follow a basic linear increment at each frame (). Therefore, the figure must contain exactly lines.
Combining both rules gives option C.
