The histogram displays a symmetrical distribution of data.

Skewed to the left

Is symmetrical if a vertical line can be drawn at some point in the histogram such that the shape to the left and the right of the vertical line are mirror images of each other.

The right-hand side seems "chopped off" compared to the left side.

Skewed to the right.

the mean is the largest, while the mode is the smallest. Again, the mean reflects the skewing the most.
