Setting

Options

 

 

Angle Measure

Degrees: 360 degrees in a circle.

 

Radians: 2π radians in a circle.

 

The angle mode you set is the angle

 

setting used in both Home view and

 

the current app. This is to ensure

 

that trigonometric calculations done

 

in the current app and Home view

 

give the same result.

Number

The number format you set is the for-

Format

mat used in all Home view calcula-

 

tions.

 

Standard: Full-precision display.

 

Fixed: Displays results rounded to

 

a number of decimal places. If you

 

choose this option, a new field

 

appears for you to enter the number

 

of decimal places. For example,

 

123.456789 becomes 123.46 in

 

Fixed 2 format.

 

Scientific: Displays results with an

 

one-digit exponent to the left of the

 

decimal point, and the specified

 

number of decimal places. For

 

example, 123.456789 becomes

 

1.23E2 in Scientific 2

 

format.

 

Engineering: Displays results with

 

an exponent that is a multiple of 3,

 

and the specified number of

 

significant digits beyond the first

 

one. Example: 123.456E7

 

becomes 1.23E9 in Engineer-

 

ing 2 format.
