When is it appropriate to use a pie chart for data analysis?

• When the data involves precise numerical values

• When comparing parts of a whole

• When comparing unrelated categories

• When analyzing trends over time

How can you analyze the trends in a line graph?

• By smelling the line graph

• By looking for patterns, changes, and relationships between the variables represented on the graph.

• By tasting the line graph

Compare and contrast the use of line graphs and pie charts for data representation.

• Both line graphs and pie charts are used for data representation, but line graphs are more suitable for showing trends over time or comparing multiple trends, while pie charts are more suitable for showing the proportion of parts to a whole.

• Pie charts are more suitable for comparing multiple trends, while line graphs are more suitable for showing the proportion of parts to a whole.

• Both line graphs and pie charts are equally suitable for showing trends over time or comparing multiple trends.

• Line graphs are used for showing proportions of parts to a whole, while pie charts are more suitable for showing trends over time.
