Consider the following statements in respect of a histogram:
1. The total area of the rectangles in a histogram is equal to the total area bounded by the corresponding frequnecy polygon and the -axis.
2. When class intervals are unequal in a frequency distribution, the area of the rectangle is proportional to the frequency. Which of the above statements is/are correct?
Options
- A1 only
- B2 only
- CBoth 1 and 2
- DNeither 1 nor 2
Correct answer
C. Both 1 and 2
