Determines how 2-element and 3-element vectors are displayed. You

can enter vectors in any of the coordinate systems.

1:RECTANGULAR Coordinates are in terms of x, y, and z. For

example, [3,5,2] represents x = 3, y = 5, and z = 2.

2:CYLINDRICAL Coordinates are in terms of r, q, and z. For

example, [3,∠45,2] represents r = 3, q = 45, and

z = 2.

3:SPHERICAL Coordinates are in terms of r, q, and f. For

example, [3, ∠45, ∠90] represents r = 3, q = 45, and

f = 90.

Determines how results are displayed on the Home screen.

1:OFF Results are displayed in a linear, one-

dimensional form.

For example, p^2, p/2, or ‡((x-3)/x)

2:ON Results are displayed in conventional

mathematical format.

For example, p2, p

2 , or xì3

Note: For a complete description of these settings, refer to “Formats

of Displayed Results” in Chapter 2.

Lets you split the screen into two parts. For example, you can

display a graph and see the Y= Editor at the same time (Chapter 14).

1:FULL The screen is not split.

2:TOP-BOTTOM The applications are shown in two screens that

are above and below each other.

3:LEFT-RIGHT The applications are shown in two screens that

are to the left and right of each other.

To determine what and how information is displayed on a split

screen, use this mode in conjunction with other modes such as

Split 1 App, Split 2 App, Number of Graphs, and Split Screen Ratio. (Split

Screen Ratio is available on the TI-92 Plus only.)
