 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 Example:The bar chart below shows the
weight in kilograms of some fruit sold one
an axis and a series of day by a local market.

labelled horizontal or
vertical rectangular
bars of lengths that
show different values
for each bar.
• Bar charts are
particularly suitable for
making comparisons.
 PIE CHARTS
• A pie chart is a circle
Example:
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.
 TREND GRAPHS
Example:The graph above shows how
• It is used when the John's weight varied from the beginning
direction or trend of of 1991 to the beginning of 1995

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.
