Notes
• These functions can be used in the CMPLX Mode, as long as a complex number is not
used in the argument. A calculation like
i
× sin(30) is supported for example, but sin(1 +
i
)
is not.
• The angle unit you need to use in a calculation is the one that is currently selected as the
default angle unit.

(G): Grads
Example: To convert
π
2
radians and 50 grads both to degrees
The following procedure assumes that Deg (degrees) is currently specifi ed for the default
angle unit.
