Which of the following is not a type of graphs and charts?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → Pictorial chart
Every graph or chart is a pictorial way of showing data, but “pictorial chart” is not a chart type in its own right. The chart types offered in a spreadsheet are named by their shape: line, bar, column, area, pie, radar, XY (scatter), bubble and so on.
Option (1) Area chart — A type of chart. It shows a series as a line with the space below it filled, so the size of the totals stands out.
Option (2) Pie chart — A type of chart. It shows the relative share of each element in a whole.
Option (3) Bar chart — A type of chart. It compares values across categories with bars of different lengths.
