GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION OF

STATISTICAL DATA
Meaning Of Graphical Representation Of
Data

 A picture is said to be more effective than words for


describing
a particular thing.
 A graphic representation is the geometrical image of a set of
data .
 It is a mathematical picture.
 It enables us to think about a statistical problem in
visual terms.
 It is an effective and economic device for the
IMPOTANCE OF GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION

 It is used to make the data understandable to


common man.
 It helps in easy and quick understanding of data.
 Data displayed by graphical representation can
be memorised for a long time.
 Can be compared at a glance.

Line graph:
line graphs are simple
Mathematical graphs that are
drawn on the
graph paper by plotting the
data connecting one
variable on the horizontal X-
axis and other variable of
data on the vertical Y-axis.
EXAMPLE:

Bar
graph:
 In bar graphs data is represented by bars.
 The bars can be made in any direction i.e. vertical or
horizontal.
 The bars are taken of equal weight and start from a
common horizontal or vertical line and their length
indicates the corresponding values of statistical data.

When do we use bar diagram ?


⚫When the data are given in whole numbers.
⚫When the data are to be compared easily.

Pie diagram:
 It is a circle in which different components are
represented through the sections or portions of a circle.
 To draw a pie diagram, first the value of each category is
expressed as a percentage of the total and then the angle
360⁰ is divided in the same percentages.
 Then at the centre of a circle these angle are
drawn simultaneously starting from a
particular radius.
 In this way we get a set of sectorial areas
proportional to the values of the items.
When do we use pie
diagram?
⚫When the data are given in percentage.
⚫When different aspect of a variable are to be
displayed.
⚫When the data are to be compared normally.

HISTOGRAM:

⚫A histogram is essentially a bar graph of a


frequency distribution.
⚫It can be constructed for equal as well as unequal
class intervals.
⚫Area of any rectangle of a histogram is proportional to
the frequency of that class.
When do we use
histogram ?
 When data are given in the form of
frequencies.
 When class interval has to be displayed by a
diagram.
When we need to calculate the Mode of a
distribution graphically.

FREQUENCY PLOGON:

 A frequency polygon is essentially a line graph .


 We can get it from a histogram, if the mid points of the upper
bases of the rectangles are connected by straight lines.
 But it is not essential to plot a histogram first to draw it.
 We can construct it directly from a given frequency distribution.
When do we use Frequency
polygon?
o When data are given in the form of frequencies.
o When two or more groups have to be
displayed in one diagram.
o When two or more groups are to be compared.

FREQUENCY CURVE:
 Frequency curve is another type of graphical representation of
data.
 When then top points of a frequency polygon are
joined not by straight lines but by curved ones.
 Frequency polygon is drawn using scale while while
Frequency curve is drawn using free hand.
When do we use frequency
curve ?

When the number of class intervals are very large i.e.,width of


the class intervals are very small and the total number of
sample values be increased indefinitely.

CONCLUSION
So we can conclude that statistical data
may be presented in a more attractive
form with the help of some graphic aids
i.e., pictures and diagrams which carries a
lot of communication power and the task
of understand and interpretation of data
becomes simple, accurate and practicable.
