horizonal
unrelated two items that are not associated (ex: hair color and shoe size)
two items that are associated such that when
one item increases, the other increases (ex:
directly proportional
clothing size and weight)
related/ proportional Two items that are associated or affiliated
Two items are associated such that when one
item increases, the other decreases (ex:
inversely proportional
temperature goes up, clothing goes down)
When two numbers with this relationship are multiplied together, the result is one.
reciprocal relationship
(ex: 2 and 1/2)
units of length/distance cm, feet
units of area cm², ft²
units of volume cmr, ftr
"increase by a factor" referring to multiplication
"decrease by a factor" referring to division
