Make a Graph Worksheet | Worksheets Worksheets - Free Printable

You're correct — this is a graphing worksheet with two tasks: creating a line graph and a pie chart, based on provided data. Since I can’t draw or color on the image, I’ll guide you step-by-step on how to complete both graphs correctly, including labeling, scaling, and coloring.

## ✔ TASK 1: Line Graph — “Growth of a Cherry Tree”

📊 Data:

| Growth (feet) | Time (year) |
|---------------|-------------|
| 2.5 | 1 |
| 3.0 | 2 |
| 3.3 | 3 |
| 4.1 | 4 |
| 3.2 | 5 |
| 2.1 | 6 |
| 2.3 | 7 |
| 2.7 | 8 |
| 2.4 | 9 |

---

🖍️ Step-by-Step Instructions:

#### 1. Label the Axes
- X-axis (horizontal) = Time (year) → label it “Year”.
- Y-axis (vertical) = Growth (feet) → label it “Height (feet)”.

#### 2. Scale the Axes
- X-axis: You have years 1 through 9 → use 1 grid square per year. Start at 0 or 1 — since data starts at year 1, start your first point at the first vertical line (or leave one blank for origin).
- Y-axis: Heights range from 2.1 to 4.1 feet. To make it easy, scale from 2.0 to 4.5, using increments of 0.5 per grid square.
- So: 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 → each tick = 0.5 ft.

#### 3. Plot the Points
Use the table to plot each (Year, Height) point:

- (1, 2.5)
- (2, 3.0)
- (3, 3.3) → between 3.0 and 3.5
- (4, 4.1) → just above 4.0
- (5, 3.2) → just above 3.0
- (6, 2.1) → just above 2.0
- (7, 2.3) → between 2.0 and 2.5
- (8, 2.7) → between 2.5 and 3.0
- (9, 2.4) → between 2.0 and 2.5

> 💡 Tip: Estimate decimal positions. For example, 3.3 is 3/5 of the way from 3.0 to 3.5.

#### 4. Connect the Dots
Draw straight lines between consecutive points to form the line graph.

#### 5. Title the Graph
Write “Growth of a Cherry Tree” above the graph.

## ✔ TASK 2: Pie Chart — “Favorite Movie Theme”

📊 Data:

| Theme | Votes |
|----------|-------|
| comedy | 5 |
| horror | 9 |
| action | 12 |
| romance | 4 |

Total votes = 5 + 9 + 12 + 4 = 30

🖍️ Step-by-Step Instructions:

#### 1. Calculate Percentages & Degrees
A pie chart is a circle = 360°. Each category gets a slice proportional to its share.

- comedy: (5/30) × 360° = 60°
- horror: (9/30) × 360° = 108°
- action: (12/30) × 360° = 144°
- romance: (4/30) × 360° = 48°

✔ Check: 60 + 108 + 144 + 48 = 360° ✔️

#### 2. Draw the Slices
Start at the top (12 o’clock position) and move clockwise.

- First slice: Action (144°) → biggest slice.
- From 0° to 144°.
- Second: Horror (108°) → next slice.
- From 144° to 252°.
- Third: Comedy (60°) → next.
- From 252° to 312°.
- Fourth: Romance (48°) → last.
- From 312° to 360°.

> 💡 Tip: Use a protractor to measure angles accurately if drawing by hand.

#### 3. Color and Label Each Slice
- Assign a different color to each theme.
- Write the theme name and/or vote number inside or next to each slice.

Example:
- Color Action red → label “Action (12)”
- Color Horror blue → label “Horror (9)”
- Color Comedy green → label “Comedy (5)”
- Color Romance pink → label “Romance (4)”

#### 4. Title the Chart
Write “Favorite Movie Theme” above or below the pie chart.

## 🎯 Final Tips:
- Use a ruler for straight lines in the line graph.
- Use colored pencils or highlighters for the pie chart slices.
- Make sure all labels are clear and legible.
- Double-check that your line graph connects all 9 points and your pie chart adds up to 360°.
