Answer 1

In a lot of cases, the chart type is simply a personal preference.

Bar charts are good for presenting specific data that are compared to each other

Line charts tend to emphasize trends

Pie charts are generally used to show the proportions of a whole, such as ethnicity in a population

Radar charts are most often used when angular data are presented, such as the sensitivity of a microphone as a function of angle
