Learning Objective

I can describe the characteristics of a normal distribution curve.

  • 1

    A normal distribution, also known as a Gaussian distribution or bell-shaped curve, is symmetrical.

  • 2

    Normal distributions are always centered on the average value, and the standard deviation determines the width of the curve.

  • 3

    For a normal distribution, 95% of the measurements fall within two standard deviations around the mean.
