Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Pi
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
Maths/graphics classification can hinge on whether an item is a diagrammatic object or a numerical constant. Three options refer to shapes or chart elements commonly used in data display, while one is a fundamental mathematical constant, not a diagrammatic entity.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Group “diagrammatic/shape” items (frequency polygon, bar, rectangle) against “constant/number” (pi). The constant is the non-graphical outlier.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Frequency polygon → chart/diagram.Bar → chart element/shape.Rectangle → geometric shape, used in charts.Pi → mathematical constant, not a chart or figure by itself.
Verification / Alternative check:
Even if “rectangle” is pure geometry and the other two are in statistics, all three are diagrammatic/shape concepts; π is purely numeric.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:
Assuming “bar” is ambiguous (metal bar). In a list with frequency polygon and rectangle, the chart/shape sense is clearly intended.
Final Answer:
Pi
