Les graphiques à coordonnées polaires. Ce sont ceux où les axes de référence sont d'une part le rayon gradué d'un cercle et d'autre part le rayon obtenu en faisant pivoter le rayon d'origine d'un certain angle. Le recours à des graphiques à coordonnées polaires est souhaitable pour représenter l'évolution d'un mouvement saisonnier (...) Il sert également à représenter une évolution intra-annuelle en l'absence de toute préoccupation d'étude d'un mouvement saisonnier. On obtient une figure en forme de spirale. 7, record 5, French, - graphique%20%C3%A0%20coordonn%C3%A9es%20polaires
