Bar Graph
Bar graph is a representation in which data is represented by using rectangular bars of equal
width. We will learn how to use a graph paper to make bar graphs.
Bar graphs may be vertical or horizontal. Every graph has a title and horizontal and vertical
scales. We can choose any scale for a graph keeping in mind the size of the paper on which
it is to be drawn. A bar graph is then drawn on two lines that are perpendicular to each
other. These lines are called axis of the graph. They are usually named X-axis and Y-axis. The
point where they meet is called point O.
