Practice Questions
Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
A scientist conducted an experiment measuring the proportion of different gases in a sample. If oxygen makes up 40% of the sample, what is the angle in degrees of its corresponding sector in a pie chart?
[2 marks]2.
In a science experiment, a diagram shows that 25% of the data is attributed to a certain gas. Calculate the angle of this gas's sector in the pie chart.
[2 marks]3.
A pie chart displays the results of a biology experiment with the following proportions: 50% for Plant A, 30% for Plant B, and the rest for Plant C. Find the angle for Plant C’s sector.
[2 marks]4.
Fluency & Practice: A chemical reaction produces three gases in the ratio 1:2:3. Calculate the angles of the pie chart sectors for each gas.
[3 marks]5.
A researcher divides data into four categories: 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Calculate the angles for each category’s sector.
[3 marks]6.
Problem Solving & Reasoning: In a science experiment, the data shows 15% of the results are from a specific reaction. The total angle of its sector in a pie chart is 54°. What is the total percentage of the other reactions combined?
[3 marks]7.
A pie chart represents the distribution of four different chemicals used in an experiment. The angles for three of them are 72°, 108°, and 144°. Find the angle for the fourth chemical.
[3 marks]8.
Challenge & Extension: A scientist notes that a sector measuring 81° in a pie chart corresponds to 45% of the data. Verify this percentage and suggest what the total data percentage would be if the sector was 90°.
[4 marks]9.
Error analysis: A student calculates that a sector of 60° represents 25% of the data. Identify and correct the mistake in this calculation.
[4 marks]10.
Mixed Review: Calculate the sector angles for a data set with proportions 60%, 25%, 10%, and 5%.
