Joint Variation - Translate mathematical statements of joint variations ans solving equations of the joint variation
1. An area (A) of a triangle varies jointly
as the base (b) and the height (h).
2. An area (A) of a triangle varies jointly
as the base (b) and the height (h).
This is an example of a joint variation, in
which one variable varies directly to two or
more variables. In this case, what will
happen to the base (b) and height (h) of
the triangle if the area (A) of the triangle is
doubled?
3. Objectives:
a) Translate mathematical statements of joint
variations into mathematical equations.
b) Solve for the equation of the joint variation and
its constant.
c) Relate real-life scenarios where joint variation
can be used.
