Changing the measured angle
By default, trigonometric arguments are interpreted as radians. To use degrees
or gradients, follow these steps:
1
Tap measured angle.
2
Tap the desired measurement from the list.
Graphs and tables are updated automatically when you change the angle. Results in
the math window are not automatically updated.
