Triangular plot

A triangular plot uses a graph to represent three different ratios of variable to depict a certain representation of material. These graphs are usually associated with physical science coursed such as chemistry, biology, and oceanography. The proportions and variables must all equal each other. This illustration is a good representation of a triangular plot because it represents three different variables which are percent clay, percent silt, and percent sand and they are made into a triangular graph and depict a certain physical science subject matter.
