How to find the period of a graph?
If you’ve noticed a downward trend in your line graph, you can use the period of a graph calculator to find out if the line is actually decreasing or increasing. The calculator will provide you with the period of the line based on the values you enter.
How to find the period of a line with peaks and valleys?
A line graph with peaks and valleys can have several different periods. One way to figure out the right one is to find the peaks and valleys by hand. Starting with the lowest points, find the highest point that is lower than the previous one. With the peaks identified, you can repeat the process, looking at the highest point that is lower than the lowest point. Repeat for a few cycles until you find the right period.
How to find the period of a pie chart?
Pie charts are circular graphs showing the breakdown of data by category. The period of a pie chart is the length of a line drawn from the center of the circle to any segment of the pie. To find the period of a pie chart, you can use the Pythagorean theorem, the sum of the squares of the radius and the segment length. The period of a circular graph is the length of an arc subtended by the radius. You can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length
How to find the period of a bar graph?
In a bar graph, the period refers to the distance between the baseline (or zero line) on the left and right sides of each column. To find the period of a bar graph, locate the measure on the vertical axis. Use the division line to find the beginning of each column. A quick way to do that is to use the Zoom tool. Simply select the graph, press Ctrl+ to zoom in, move the mouse cursor to the left of the graph, and click and drag the mouse
How to find the period of a line graph?
Finding the period of a line graph is a little trickier than it is for a bar graph. One way to do this is to find the time it takes for the line to rise to 75% of its maximum value. In other words, divide the length of the graph into equal parts by the number of data points, and find the point where the line reaches 75% of its maximum value. You can use a calculator to do this, or you can use the line graph feature in Excel to
