The branch of Mathematics that deals with collecting and presenting facts and figures is called Statistics. Very often the information is presented in the form of a picture which makes it easier to understand. In this class, we will learn: •
• •
To choose the more suitable picture (bar charts, trend graphs or pie charts ) according to the information. To draw them. To interprete them.
BAR CHARTS • Bar charts consist of an axis and a series of labelled horizontal or vertical rectangular bars of lengths that show different values for each bar. • Bar charts are particularly suitable for making comparisons.
Example:The bar chart below shows the weight in kilograms of some fruit sold one day by a local market.
PIE CHARTS • A pie chart is a circle graph divided into sectors (pieces) illustrating frequencies or percents. • The central angle of each sector is proportional to the quantity it represents. FRACTION ·360º = CENTRAL ANGLE
• It is used to show how a part of something relates to the whole.
Example:
TREND GRAPHS • It is used when the direction or trend of figures over a period of time is required. • In the trend graph the time is plotted on the horitzontal axis while the quantity is plotted on the vertical axis.
Example:The graph above shows how John's weight varied from the beginning of 1991 to the beginning of 1995
