kTrigonometric Functions (sin, cos, tan) and Inverse Trigonometric

Functions (sin–1, cos–1, tan–1)

The first four examples below use “Degree” (indicated by “Deg” in the status bar) as the angle unit setting. The final example uses “Radian” (indicated by “Rad”). For details about the [Setup] menu, see “14-2 Using the Setup Menu”.
