Using the Action Menu

S normal

Function: Returns the right side of the equation for the line normal (

y

= ‘expression’) to the

curve at the specified point.

Syntax: normal (Exp/List, variable, variable value at point of normal [ ) ]

Example: To determine the function of the line normal to

y

=

x

3

at

x

= 2

Menu Item: [Action][Calculation][normal]

S arcLen

Function: Returns the arc length of an expression from a start value to an end value with

respect to a specified variable.

Syntax: arcLen (Exp/List, variable, start value, end value [ ) ]

Example: To determine the arc length for

y

=

x

3

2

from

x

= 0 to

x

= 4

Menu Item: [Action][Calculation][arcLen]

S rangeAppoint

Function: Finds an expression or value that satisfies a condition in a specified range.

Syntax: rangeAppoint (Exp/Eq/List, start value, end value [ ) ]

• When using an equation (Eq) for the first argument, input the equation using the syntax

Var = Exp. Evaluation will not be possible if any other syntax is used.

Example: To find the expression(s) in the list {

x

=

x

= 2

P,

x

= 3

P} that belong(s) to the

closed range 0 

x

 5

[rangeAppoint]

Example: To find the “

n

” that satisfies the condition 0



n

s

S mod

Function: Returns the remainder when one expression is divided by another expression.

Syntax: mod ({Exp/List} -1, {Exp/List} -2 [ ) ]

Example: To determine the remainder when 26 is divided by 3 (26mod3)

Menu Item: [Action][Calculation][mod]

S tanLine

Function: Returns the right side of the equation for the tangent line (

y

= ‘expression’) to

the curve at the specified point.

Syntax: tanLine (Exp/List, variable, variable value at point of tangency [ ) ]

Example: To determine the function of the line tangent to

y

=

x

3

at

x

= 2
