2. Time–distance diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–distance_diagram

   A time–distance diagram is a chart with two axes: one for time, the other for location. The units on either axis depend on the type of project: time can be expressed in minutes (for overnight construction of railroad modification projects such as the installation of switches) or years (for large construction projects); the location can be (kilo)meters, or other distinct units (such as ...

3. Distance-transitive graph - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance-transitive_graph

   In the mathematical field of graph theory, a distance-transitive graph is a graph such that, given any two vertices v and w at any distance i, and any other two vertices x and y at the same distance, there is an automorphism of the graph that carries v to x and w to y. Distance-transitive graphs were first defined in 1971 by Norman L. Biggs and ...

4. Spacetime diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime_diagram

   Unlike a regular distance-time graph, the distance is displayed on the horizontal axis and time on the vertical axis. Additionally, the time and space units of measurement are chosen in such a way that an object moving at the speed of light is depicted as following a 45° angle to the diagram's axes.

7. Distance (graph theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_(graph_theory)

   The latter may occur even if the distance in the other direction between the same two vertices is defined. In the mathematical field of graph theory, the distance between two vertices in a graph is the number of edges in a shortest path (also called a graph geodesic) connecting them. This is also known as the geodesic distance or shortest-path ...

8. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

   The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.

9. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

   Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object. (Velocity is on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Multiplying the velocity by the time, the time cancels out, and only displacement remains.)
