Your calculator has standard trigonometric keys, in addition to Right
Triangle keys (e.g.,

R, r, d and p), for advanced Right Triangle

mathematics.

The Sine, Cosine, and Tangent of an angle are defined in relation to
the sides of a Right Triangle.

Using the

Ç key with the trigonometric function gives you the

Arcsine, Arccosine and Arctangent – all of which are used to find the
Angle for the Sine, Cosine, or Tangent value entered.

S

Sine Function — Calculates the Sine of a Degree
or undimensioned* value.

Ç S

Arcsine (sin

-1

) — Calculates the angle for the

entered or calculated Sine value.

ç

Cosine Function — Calculates the Cosine of a
Degree or undimensioned* value.

З з

Arccosine (cos

-1

) — Calculates the angle for the

entered or calculated Cosine value.

t

Tangent Function — Calculates the Tangent of a
Degree or undimensioned* value.

Ç t

Arctangent (tan

-1

) — Calculates the angle for the

entered or calculated Tangent value.

*Note: Cannot use on dimensioned values.
