(5) Press E.
• Notice that the solution is the same as the coordinates of point A.
Tip
• Try using this drag and drop method to find the point of intersection of two lines. This is a great
way to find the solution to a system of equations.
• To view a fractional result as a decimal, tap the input row and then u.
• The information that appears when you drop a figure into another application depends on the
