Which type of poem typically follows a predictable, mathematical pattern?

  1. Sonnet

  2. Ode

  3. Epic

  4. Haiku

The correct answer is: Haiku

A sonnet is a 14-line poem with a specific rhyme scheme and structure, but it does not necessarily follow a mathematical pattern. An ode is a lyrical poem typically written to praise someone or something, and does not involve a mathematical pattern. An epic is a long narrative poem about heroic deeds, which may have some structure, but it is not typically based on a mathematical pattern. A haiku, on the other hand, is a traditional Japanese poem that follows a specific syllable pattern of 5-7-5, making it a type of poem that follows a mathematical pattern. This is why the correct answer is D.
