Learn to:
- Work with all three calculators in the TI-84 Plus family
- Use functions for basic arithmetic, graphing and analysis, geometry, and probability
- Develop essential skills for the classroom
- Enable your calculator to communicate with your PC
Learn to graph scatter plots, analyze statistical data, and even write calculator programs
That TI-84 graphing calculator in your hand is one amazing device. This book will help you unlock all the magic, so you'll be able to use your TI-84 Plus for much more than basic math. Learn to enter and evaluate complex numbers, analyze functions, graph polar equations and sequences, calculate mortgages, share calculator files with your PC, and more.
- Meet your TI-84 Plus — get acquainted with the keypad, Home screen, menus, and mode settings
- Master math essentials — use your calculator for basic arithmetic functions, work with fractions, and solve equations
