Question 954795: Can a pie chart with 360 degrees be converted to a rectangle?

Do you mean can you make a representation of data using areas similar to a pie chart using a rectangle?
Yes, the area of the smaller rectangle will be equivalent to the percentage of total area in the same measure as the pie.
So if X, Y, and Z are three measures in your pie chart with 25%, 25% and 50% of the pie,
then the rectangle would have 1/4 of the rectangle designated as A, 1/4 designated as B, and 1/2 designated as C.
