Hi Darien
 
Learning rate is the big concept that you know from the beginning.
 
Momentum is a notion, an idea that tries to show how to adjust the learning rate to reach the optimal learning rate.
 
So they are not two different variables or notions. Momentum is a part of the learning rate.
 
Best,
