How to Make a Bar Chart with GeoGebra

There are two ways to make a bar chart in GeoGebra. The first way is to use a list of observations, which is the easir of the two. The second way is to use a frequency table.

GeoGebra Instruction 1

Bar Chart from a List of Observations

1.
Open Algebra View, Graphics View and Spreadsheet mode under GeoGebra icon View in GeoGebra icon Menu.
2.
Enter all your observations into column A.
3.
Mark all your observations and select the One Variable Analysis GeoGebra icon tool.
4.
You’ll get a new window with a histogram. GeoGebra displays a histogram by default, so you need to select Bar Chart from the drop-down list at top of the window.
