Calculator giving "wrong" values?!?
Hi, working on some trigonometry questions and getting them wrong. Then I was getting suspicious if my calculator was wrong (arrogant I know :P) But I check online and I am getting two separate answers!
My calculator gives values like:
Sin(10) = -0.544 while online the "online calculator" gives 0.1737. I am fairly sure the online one is right! How do I fix my calculator!!
Its a SHARP EL-W531 "Writeview" On the RAD (Radian) mode, N1, w-view.
Am I in the wrong mode? What values do you guys get?
Thanks in advance!
I don't want to sound technophobic but how do I set it to degrees? I went through the modes, didn't see it?
Oh found it :/ haha thanks!
