The graphical depiction described is a pie chart, as it uses a circle shape and divides it into sections (triangles in this case) to represent the frequency values. A histogram uses bars to represent frequency values, a line graph plots data points and connects them with lines, a Pareto diagram uses bars and a line to show relative frequency and cumulative frequency, and a stem-and-leaf display uses digits to show frequency values.
