Caption: Figure 3.

Histogram of the axis ratios for all galaxies in our sample, with a low-redshift star-forming disky comparison sample from Rodríguez & Padilla (2013) in orange. The dashed blue line shows the division between edge-on and face-on galaxies by the median axis ratio ﹩\left(b/a=0.55\right)﹩. The observed distribution is consistent with the expected relatively flat distribution for disk galaxies, and it is inconsistent with the expected rising distribution for elliptical galaxies.
