Note: When you select “linelO” as the input/output format,
calculation results are always displayed using decimal values
(no irrational number form) regardless of whether you press
 or   .
Note: π form display (includes π within irrational number
display) conditions are the same as those for S-D Conversion.
For details, see “Using S-D Transformation.”
Example 1:

(1)      
(2)        
Example 2: sin(60) =

• For details about calculations using  and π see:
“Function Calculations.”
• The following are the calculations for which  form (form
that includes  within irrational number display) results
can be displayed.
a. Arithmetic calculation of values with square root symbol
(), x 2 , x 3 , x -1 .
b. Trigonometric function calculations
 form results can be produced by trigonometric
functions only in the following cases.
In all other cases, calculation results displayed in decimal
form.
