  1. Bar diagram

  2. Component bar diagram

  3. Histogram

  4. Multiple bar diagram


Correct Option: C

Histogram is a type of _____.

  1. Geometric diagram

  2. Frequency diagram

  3. Both A and B

  4. Arithmetic line graph


Correct Option: B

Which of the following are differences between bar diagram and histogram?

  1. In a histogram, no space is left in between two rectangles, but in a bar diagram some space must be left between consecutive bars

  2. The width of a bar is unimportant for the purpose of comparison. The width in a histogram is as important as its height.

  3. We can have a bar diagram both for discrete and continuous variables, but the histogram is drawn only for a continuous variable.

  4. All of these


Correct Option: D

Histogram is suitable for the data presented as _________.

  1. continuous grouped frequency distribution

  2. discrete grouped frequency distribution

  3. individual series

  4. all the above


Correct Option: A

Histogram also gives value of _______ of the frequency distribution graphically

  1. mode

  2. mean

  3. median

  4. all of these


Correct Option: A

Histogram give a graphical presentation of a continuous frequency distribution.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A

Histogram give a graphical presentation of a continuous frequents distribution.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: A

When in a frequency distribution class widths are not same we have to draw histogram then,

  1. We mark class size as width and the given frequency as length and draw the rectangle

  2. We reduce class size to minimum class size keeping the length same

  3. We find the proportionate lengths of the class corresponding to minimum width and draw the rectangle.

  4. None of these


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

When in a frequency distribution class widths are not same we have to draw histogram then,We find the proportionate lengths of the class corresponding to minimum width and draw the rectangle.
Answer (C) 
We find the proportionate lengths of the class corresponding to minimum width and draw the rectangle.
