How do we know it is 5th one only as 3rd one also has 8 sides

I think it is related to no of lines in the polygon. In that view also both (E, 3) having same 12 lines. So answer may be 'c'.

It is not related to the number of Lines,

It depends on the Number of Parts of the Figures.

It increases as the series proceeds.

So correct Answer is (E)5.

(C) have only 7 corners whereas (A)and (E) have 8 corner. In every corner it is connected with straight lines as in (E). So correct answer is (E).
(1)

Every time shape of fig get changed with increment of blocks that's why its 'E'.

It depends on the number of parts in figure.

Why can't the answer be the 1st option as the number of sides also increases in the question by one?

How will we know that the 5th option is right though option 3rd has also 8 sides? Please explain.

The no of sides increasing by one simultaneously with the no of parts.

Figure A----> 3 sides, 3 parts.

B----> 4 sides, 4 parts.

---------------------.

E-----> 7 sides, 7 parts.

So Answer is 5th one having 8 sides and 8 parts.
