10-2 Circle Graphs D1: Read and interpret graphs
Circle Graphs: • Show parts to a whole • All circle graphs represent 100% • Good for showing survey results 100% 50% 33.3% 33.3% 25% 25% 33.3%
Steps to create a circle graph • Find the percent that each part represents (if not given) • Convert the percentage to degrees of the circle Example: 18% of 360 = 0.18 •360 ≈ 65° • Draw a radius from the center to the side of circle • Measure the given degree by lining up protractor with that radius • Repeat with remaining sectors • Label the sections with the percents & category and give the graph a title
Example: US (1896-2000) Olympic Medals 2,117 100% 360° Add two Columns to table and label % and angle Use steps to create the circle graph How many total medals have been won?
