Let's break down the statement:
"He is the son of the daughter of the father of my uncle."
"Father of my uncle" - This refers to the grandfather.
"Daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the father's sister, which means the girl's father's sister.
"Son of the daughter of the father of my uncle" - This is the son of the girl's father's sister.
So, the boy is girl's cousin.
"He is the son of the daughter of the father of my uncle."

@All
Here if it's mentioned the Girl's mother is the only daughter of her father so that we could get brother as the answer. Here the original answer would be data insufficient or cannot be determined.

So, the boy's mother is the sister of the girl. Therefore, the boy is the nephew of the girl.

Through final conclusion, you will get to know that,
The son can be either cousin or brother of the girl, as a cousin is not in the given option it will be the brother of the girl.
Also, the relation between the girl and uncle, specifies that she is not the daughter of the uncle hence boy can't be a cousin of the girl.

@All.
Here, you can understand it properly.
In this type of question (son of the daughter of the father of my uncle) reverse the chain
i.e. solve it this way.
Father of uncle.
Daughter of the father of uncle.
Son of the daughter of the father of uncle.
So
1) Father of an uncle (dad)
2) Daughter of the father of uncle.
3) Son of the Mom.
(Son of the mummy is brother).
Hope you understand.

See, if the girl's uncle a maternal one.
Boy is the brother of that girl.
If the girl's uncle - paternal one.
Then, in that case boy is the cousin of that girl.
