Bilateral Graph


Bilateral graphs are a type of visualization graphs which depict two relatable variables; the best use of bilateral graphs is to show the relationship between the two variables whose trends are moving in opposite directions. For example, this particular bilateral graph depicts the relationship between the falling unemployment rate and the rising job rate after Bush signed Job and Growth Act. This map spans from Jan.2003 to Nov.2005. This map also presents the average unemployment rate from 1960-2005 in order to show the extreme plunge in the unemployment rate. This map was taken from http://www.ustreas.gov/press/releases/images/november%20jobs%20graph.jpg.
