About radar chart paper
A radar chart, also called a spider or star chart, plots several variables on axes that share a center. Each axis carries its own scale, and joining the points makes a shape you can compare at a glance. Set how many axes you need and how many rings mark the scale.
Radar charts, also called spider or star charts, put several variables on axes radiating from a shared center, so one glance shows a profile across all of them. Set the number of axes to your categories and the rings to your scale, then plot each value out from the center and join the dots.
They are ideal for comparing options or tracking a profile over time — overlay two shapes to see strengths and gaps instantly. Keep the axis count moderate so the chart stays legible.

Common questions
How many axes should a radar chart have?
One per category you are comparing. Three to eight keeps it readable; too many axes make the shape hard to interpret.
Can I compare two things on one chart?
Yes — plot each on the same axes and the overlapping shapes show where one leads or lags the other.
