Review the data from the lab and determine whether your data is within standard deviations. Report, using numerical values, whether your data for each angle is within standard deviations. An acceptable margin of error typically falls between 4% and 8% at the 95% confidence level. Review your data for each angle to determine whether the margin of error is within an acceptable range. Report with numerical values, whether your data for each angle is within an acceptable margin of error. Can you help explain what my data means in terms of the standard deviation and the ME?
