A chart relating three or more scales across which a straightedge can be placed to provide a graphical solution for a particular problem.
a chart that presents an equation containing a number of variables in the form of several straight lines. The straight lines are scaled with values of the variables. To use it, a straight edge is placed across the scaled lines at the appropriate values. A nomograph can be easier to use than solving the equation.
a graphic representation of numerical relations
a graphical tool that enables you to quickly calculate a mathematical function by just drawing a line between two known values and observing where that line intersects the third value you want to solve for
a set of scales, that is, lines marked with numbers, drawn in a particular pattern
A graph consisting of three coplanar curves, each graduated for a different variable, so that a straight line cutting all three curves intersects the related values of each variable.
