How to Use
- Choose DEG or RAD for trigonometry.
- Enter expressions using buttons or your keyboard. Use parentheses for order of operations.
- Common functions:
sin(
,cos(
,tan(
,ln(
,log(
,√
,x^y
,n!
. - Use MC/MR/M+/M−/MS to store and recall numbers.
Worked Examples
- Trig (Degrees):
sin(30)
→ 0.5 (ensure DEG is selected). - Logarithms:
log(1000)
→ 3,ln(e)
→ 1. - Powers:
2 ^ 10
→ 1024,10^ 3
→ 1000. - Percent:
200 * 15%
→ 30. - Factorial:
6!
→ 720 (integers ≥ 0 only).
Formulas & Notes
Power uses caret: a ^ b
(converted to exponentiation). Trig respects angle mode. Percent turns a trailing %
into ÷100. Factorial n!
is defined for whole, non-negative n
.
Educational use only.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I switch between degrees and radians?
Click DEG or RAD next to the display. Trig and inverse trig use your selection.
Why does ^
work for powers?
The UI accepts ^
and converts it to exponentiation during evaluation.
What does the percent symbol do?
A trailing %
becomes a division by 100 (e.g., 15%
→ 0.15
).
Can I use factorial on decimals?
No—n!
requires a non-negative integer.
