|
ratio
|
comparison of two similar things (quantities) that tells the scale between them-- usually written as a fraction (one number divided by another number)

|
angle measure or the unit of measure for an angle
|
An angle is measured with the unit called a degree. A 'right angle' is a total of 90 degrees.
|
|
equivalent ratios
|
ratios written as fractions that have the same value; e.g. 1/2 is a ratio and 2/4 is a ratio; and these two ratios are equal or 'equivalent'.
|
|
