    Can we determine skewness through just a cumulative frequency graph ?
    Or can we also determine correlation with a cumulative frequency graph ?

    Your help would be appreciated..

    Yes, you could determine skewness from the cumulative frequency graph. For example, positive skew would have a long flat slowly rising last part.

    No you can't determine correlation as correlation is between two variables whereas a cumulative frequency graph is for just one.
