Explanation:
The number of edges increases by "1 " in each figure.
1. Figure "A" has 3 edges & 3 divisions.
2. Figure "B" has 4 edges & 4 divisions.
3. Figure "C" has 5 edges & 5 divisions.
4. Figure "D" has 6 edges & 6 divisions.
5. Figure "E" has 7 edges & 7 divisions.
Therefore the next figure should have"8" edges & 8 division.
-The figure "5" in the answer column has 8 edges & division.
Hence "E" is the correct answer.
The number of edges increases by "1 " in each figure.
1. Figure "A" has 3 edges & 3 divisions.
2. Figure "B" has 4 edges & 4 divisions.
3. Figure "C" has 5 edges & 5 divisions.
4. Figure "D" has 6 edges & 6 divisions.
5. Figure "E" has 7 edges & 7 divisions.
Therefore the next figure should have"8" edges & 8 division.
-The figure "5" in the answer column has 8 edges & division.
Hence "E" is the correct answer.

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.
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.

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.
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).

Why not second one (2) is the answer of this question, figure second has also contain the 8th part as same as part contain by (5).

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 seems @Aniket is right.
The option E has 8 corners and 8 empty boxes. None of them has this option.
The option E has 8 corners and 8 empty boxes. None of them has this option.

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