What does a square with a darkened lower triangle represent?

  1. AC Relay

  2. DC Relay

  3. Latching Relay

  4. Timer

The correct answer is: Latching Relay

A square with a darkened lower triangle represents a latching relay. This type of relay has two stable states, requiring a pulse or change in input to switch between them. Option A, AC Relay, is incorrect because a square with a darkened lower triangle specifically represents a latching relay and not just any type of AC relay. Option B, DC Relay, is also incorrect because a square with a darkened lower triangle specifically represents a latching relay and not just any type of DC relay. Option D, Timer, is incorrect because a square with a darkened lower triangle is a symbol for latching relay, not a timer.
