Question
State three important precautions which must be followed while plotting points on a graph.
Solution
Precautions for plotting points on a graph:
- The points marked on graph paper should be sharp, but not thick.
- Ordinates of points should be written close to the plotted point.
- It is not necessary that the graph line should pass through all points. A best-fit line should be drawn.
