What is the difference between a line graph and a pie graph?

a pie graph is a circle shape or the shape of a pie. for each answer of the data given, it is then changed in to an angle which is transferred into the circle showing the percentage of data. A line graph is set up like a column graph except you don't put the columns in, instead you put a dot next to the number of data for each one you would draw a column next to. when you have drawn all the dots you join them together which makes a line and shows you the data.
