Row 3, you can complete the first column as already having the shapes from the previous rows. Row one, circle, row 2 triangle, row 3 would be a star For coloum one. Coloum 3 can't have that trinalge but we have the first 2 shapes from the previous rows, leading to a circle for row 3 column 3. That means the triangle only has one home left and that would be the middle column row 3.

Look at it like this, you have to plug both tables into one. Each shape has to be in each row and column but can't be 2 of the same shape in per row or coloum. Key rule is start by the top row and go down each row one after the other. If you move down to the next row, you can't go back to the first. Plugging everything into the first table, the row shows space, triangle, star. We have a circle we can plug in from the 2nd table. We see that there are now 2 stars in one of the columns and we can't have that. Since we're working on row one, switch the star and triangle, that way the last column has triangle, star, triangle( I know over lapping triangles but we didn't get to row 3 yet). Row one should be circle, star, triangle. We are done with row one. Row 2 you cant have 2 circles for that first column, so slide it to the right. Now you have blank, circle, and star. That blank is trinalge as that completes row 2.

Just figure out where each shape hasn't been yet: the triangle hasn't appeared in the middle bottom square, the star hasn't appeared in the bottom left corner square, and the circle hasn't appeared in the upper left corner square. The idea is that the matrix is complete when each shape has been inside each square.

Star moves clockwise in four-block group located in upper left corner. Triangle moves clockwise in four-block group located in upper left corner. Square moves clockwise in four-block group located in lower right corner. Circle moves clockwise in four-block group located inlower right corner.

Can't get it anyone explain it in simple words
