1. Pictograph

  • A pictograph uses pictures or symbols to represent data.
  • Each symbol stands for a certain number of items (called the key or scale).

2. Bar Graph

  • A bar graph uses bars of equal width to show data.
  • Bars can be drawn vertically (column graph) or horizontally.
  • The height or length of the bar shows the value of the data.
