Analyze the stress pattern of the line

The line is: "Can-non in front of them".
Stressed syllables are underlined: "Can-non in front of them".
This gives the stress pattern: Stressed-unstressed-unstressed, Stressed-unstressed-unstressed (/ x x / x x).

Identify the poetic foot

A foot consisting of one stressed syllable followed by two unstressed syllables (/ x x) is a dactyl.

Match with the given options

The pattern matches "dactyl".
