Using that solve this problem: 221= ____________________________________. 5. What do you think this key is used for SIN: __________________________________ 6. If you want to square a number you press this key x2, what does this equal 372=___________ 7. Some actions on the calculator will require you to use parenthesis to get the correct answer. Solve these two equations to see if this is true. 1) (8+94)*2=____________ 2) 8+9-4*2=______________ 8. Your teacher wants you to only have 5 numbers after the decimal place to do this on the calculator use these keys: MODE ▼►(press > till you have reached the value you want) ENTER 2nd MODE what is the answer to this problem rounded out at 5 spaces 9/54=__________ 9. Go to Y= and enter this equation 3x+8-5 then go to GRAPH can you see the points where the line crosses the X-axis _____________. 10. Using the same graph hit 2ND GRAPH this shows your table option on this graph what point is Y when X= -15: (-15,_______________) 11. You are finding the SIN of 74 and you get this number -.98515, you then see you got it wrong on your test and your teacher tells you it is because you had the wrong mode. She tells you that to change it hit these keys MODE ▼▼►ENTER 2ND MODE what is the correct answer: __________ 12.

You can also us this function to reduce a fraction reduce this fraction using your calculator 950/1450=_____________/___________ Teachers Key for this work sheet: 1. This answer will vary student gets +1 point for it 2. The calculator screen gets brighter or dimmer 3. Carrot 4. 2097152 5. Sine 6. 1369 7. 1)26 2)9 8 .16667 9.
