Correct Answer: Line


Solution : Given:
Cube > Square > ?

To understand the pattern, let's look at the properties of each shape in the series:

1. A cube is a three-dimensional shape. It is made up of 6 squares (6 faces), which are two-dimensional shapes.
2. A square is a two-dimensional shape. It is made up of 4 lines (4 sides), which are one-dimensional shapes.

Now, to find the next term in the series, we need to identify a pattern that involves reducing one dimension with each step i.e. one-dimensional shape.

So, the line is the missing term of the series. Hence, the first option is correct.
