How to use Scientific Calculator

  1. Choose DEG, RAD or GRAD for angles.
  2. Click the keys or type on your keyboard; a live preview shows the result as you go.
  3. Press = or Enter, then reuse results from the history or with “ans”.

Worked example

sin(30) + 2² × 3 gives 12.5 in degree mode. The same expression in radians gives a different answer, so check the angle mode first.

What order are operations done in?

Standard order: brackets, powers, then multiplication and division, then addition and subtraction. 2 + 3 × 4 is 14.

Does implicit multiplication work?

Yes. 2π, 3(4 + 1) and 2sin(30) are multiplied automatically.
