We first mark the mid point on a histogram and then adjoins all these mid points. You get the frequency...

While constructing histogram the size of the item and their frequencies are represented in the form of rectangles. Each class is represented by a distance on the scale on X-axis and then respective frequencies are drawn on Y-axis. The heights of the bar is a measure of concentration of frequency. Histogram...

Histogram presents a frequency distribution arranged in class interval while frequency polygon is a graphical representation of a line joining the mid-values of the top of the frequency rectangles of histogram. read less
