displays a menu that lets you
specify the unit of an angle.
º
Specifies degrees.
r

4DMS
Specifies degrees (
Ä
), minutes
(
Å
), and seconds (
Æ
). It also lets
you convert an angle from
decimal degrees to DMS
notation.
Notes
• The examples on the transparency
masters assume all default settings.
• Angles with a trig function ignore the
angle mode setting and display results in
the original unit. Otherwise, angles
(without a trig function) are converted
and displayed according to the angle
mode setting.
• You enter decimal-degree angles the
same as you would any other number.
• For decimal/DMS conversions, the
calculator interprets all values as
degrees, regardless of the angle-unit
setting.
• DMS angles are entered as
Ä
(degrees),
Å
(minutes), and
Æ
(seconds).
