Function Values Using a Calculator Calculators are capable of finding trigonometric function values. When evaluating trigonometric functions of angles given in degrees, remember that the calculator must be set in degree mode. To check if your calculator is in degree mode enter sin 90. The answer should be 1. Remember that most calculator values of trigonometric functions are approximations. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc.

If x is an appropriate number, then sin 1 x,cos 1 x, or tan -1 x gives the measure of an angle whose sine, cosine, or tangent is x. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide 2-25 Example: Using Inverse Trigonometric Functions to Find Angles Use a calculator to find an angle in the interval [0 ,90 ] that satisfies each condition.
