In order to make a circle graph for any information, you have to find the degree measurement of the central angle for each piece of the circle graph. The central angle is an angle made from the center of the circle graph, giving each piece its size. Central angle
Example 1 A software company asked 60 owners what they use their computers for most. Of these owners, 21 said word processing, 18 said spreadsheets, 6 said Internet access, and 15 had other responses. Use a circle graph to display these results.
Step 2: Find the percent of computer owners giving each response. Rememberto find percent set it up as follows… Part % Whole 100 =
Step 3:Use these percents to find the angle measures of the sectors of the circle graph. To find the angle measure, multiply the percent by 360º. 0.35 x 360º = 126º 0.30 x 360º = 108º 0.10 x 360º = 36º 0.25 x 360º = 90º
Step 5: Use a protractor to draw sectors having the angle measures found in step 3. 126º .
Step 5: Use a protractor to draw sectors having the angle measures found in step 3. Word Processing 35% 108º Label each sector with the corresponding response & percent.
Label each sector with the corresponding response & percent. Step 5: Use a protractor to draw sectors having the angle measures found in step 3. Word Processing 35% 36º 30% Spreadsheets
Step 5: Use a protractor to draw sectors having the angle measures found in step 3. 90º Word Processing 35% 10% Internet access 30% Spreadsheets Label each sector with the corresponding response & percent.
Step 5: Use a protractor to draw sectors having the angle measures found in step 3. 25% Word Processing Other 35% 10% Internet access 30% Spreadsheets Label each sector with the corresponding response & percent.
Step 6: Title your circle graph. Computer Use 25% Word Processing Other 35% 10% Internet access 30% Spreadsheets

Discuss Resources Activity How did it feel when you saw how much other groups got? How did you divide the m&m’s within your group? Did you do anything to get more candy or give any away? How does this activity relate to the real world? How would this have been different if you were really hungry and hadn’t eaten much, or anything, for a couple days? Why are people poor? How can you explain poverty in terms of population and resource distribution?
It was a miracle that the faint cry of the baby was heard at all. Having been placed in a dustbin shortly after birth the chances of surviving were remote. A passing policeman heard the baby and found it wrapped in a dirty blanket. • The policeman returned to his slum with the baby. Word went out in search of someone to care for this foundling. Achan Grace, stepped forward. She is mother of five children, including two-year-old twins and three big brothers, all of whom are under the age of eight. They all live together in a mudroom without electricity or running water. She embraced with love the responsibility and cost of caring for yet another child. She named the baby 'Gift from God' and calls him simply 'Gift'.
Grace is a refugee from the war in Northern Uganda. She had been living in abject poverty before she became a beader for BeadforLife. She had tearfully relinquished one of her children, 3-year-old Joseph, to an orphanage because her children were starving to death. Now she has brought Joseph home to live with his siblings and the new baby. • In the photo she is holding up a red necklace and earrings that she made for Oprah Winfrey. She won the contest with these beautiful beads and we sent them to Oprah. Hasn't she got an incredible smile for someone who has endured a difficult life and is so lacking in material things?
Brenda, 22, is achieving her goal of becoming a nurse despite the huge challenges of her early life. Brenda’s father was insane and wandered from village to village. Her mother, unable to cope with her family and extreme poverty, abandoned them. • Brenda was taken in by a distant relative of her father who told her, “I can’t afford anything for you, but you can stay with us.” But Brenda was determined to get herself educated. By studying really hard, late into the night by candlelight, she managed to win scholarships to high school, scoring at the highest levels of achievement. • But upon graduation there were no jobs to be found for a poor girl with a high school education. So Brenda resigned herself to no expectations and was waiting without hope at home. Now Brenda is a part of our Vocational Training Program for youth. She passed her nursing entrance exams and is enrolled as a first-year student at Mulago Nursing School. She will be a much needed and wonderful nurse.
