The chapter “Statistics” in NCERT Class 11 Maths introduces students to the collection, organization, and interpretation of data. It provides fundamental concepts of measures of central tendency such as mean, median, and mode, and explains measures of dispersion like range, mean deviation, variance, and standard deviation.
Students also learn methods of data representation, including histograms, cumulative frequency curves, and ogives, which help in analyzing trends and patterns effectively. The chapter emphasizes practical applications in real-life situations, including business, economics, and social sciences.
With step-by-step examples, solved problems, and exercises, students strengthen their analytical and problem-solving skills.
This chapter is vital for Class 11 board exams, JEE, NEET, and other competitive exams, as statistics forms the basis for probability and data interpretation in higher mathematics.
