Problem
What is the area of a circle if the radius is 12 cm?The area of the circle is approximately 452. 4 square cm when rounded to one decimal place.
Angle menu
%I %I displays the choice of two submenus that enable you to specify the angle unit modifier as degrees (), minutes ('), seconds ("); radian (r); gradian (g), or convert units using DMS. You can also convert between rectangular coordinate form (R) and polar coordinate form (P). (See Rectangular to Polar for more information. ) Choose an angle mode from the mode screen. Entries are interpreted and results displayed according to the angle mode setting without needing to enter an angle unit modifier.

Rectangular to polar
%I %I displays a menu to convert rectangular coordinates (x, y) to polar coordinates (r, q) or vice versa. Set Angle mode, as necessary, before starting calculations.

Example
Convert polar coordinates (r, q)=(5, 30) into rectangular coordinates. Then convert rectangular coordinates (x, y) = (3, 4) into polar coordinates. R P -p $$""< -%I"3 5 %` 30 E< %I"4 5 %` 30 E< %I"1 3 %` 4 E< %I"2 3 %` 4 E< Converting (r, q) = (5, 30) gives (x, y) = (4. 3, 2. 5) and (x, y) = (3, 4) gives (r, q) = (5. 0, 53. 1).
Trigonometry

DOMAIN -- You specified an argument to a function outside the valid range. For TAN: x = 90, -90, 270, -270, 450, etc. , and equivalent for radian mode. EQUATION LENGTH ERROR -- An entry exceeds the digit limits (80 for stat entries or 47 for constant entries); for example, combining an entry with a constant that exceeds the limit. FRQ DOMAIN -- FRQ value (in 1-Var stats) < 0 or > 99, or not an integer. [. . . ]
