A distribution is said to be symmetric if the relative frequency (or probability) is the same the same distance either side of its centre, m. Mathematically, the distribution of X-m is then the same as the distribution of m-X.The mean and median of a symmetric distribution are equal.The most important symmetric distribution is the normal distribution, which is unimodal and therefore is symmetric about the mode.athematically, the distribution of X-m is then the same as the distribution of m-X.

Relative frequency distributions is often displayed in histograms and in frequency polygons. The only difference between a relative frequency distribution graph and a frequency distribution graph is that the vertical axis uses proportional or relative frequency rather than simple frequency. Cumulative relative frequency (also called an ogive) is the accumulation of the previous relative frequencies. Key Terms
