the angle setting controls HOME and the current aplet. The

both HOME and current aplet. To further configure an aplet,
you use the SETUP keys (>6+,)7@>3/27@ and >6+,)7@>180@).

Angle
Measure
Angle values are:
Degrees. 360 degrees in a circle.
Radians. 2π radians in a circle.
Grads. 400 grads in a circle.
The angle mode you set is the angle
setting used in both HOME and the
current aplet. This is done to ensure that
trigonometric calculations done in the
current aplet and HOME give the same
result.
