USING YOUR CALCULATOR EFFECTIVELY

 The best calculators for Examinations which allow using Non Programmable calculator  are
Casio fx 991 es plus.
casio fx991ex etc.
Here I am explaining some important but lesser used functions of the calci. which every engineering students must know.
firstly ther are three types of inscription on calci keys.
 #one that is written in bold black or white :  this function or numeral can be accessed by simply             pressing that button.
#second is that written in yellow color that function be accessed by pressing SHIFT key before pressing that key function.
# third is that written in red colour .this key can be accessed by pressing ALPHA key before pressing that key
1. equation solving
   a) Equation in standard form
      #press MODE key
      #press 5 key for selecting EQN
     # choose the type of equation  by pressing the numeral key corresponding to it.
        suppose we have to solve 4x2 +12x + 9=0
         to solve this we enter the values corresponding to a,b,c in format (Ax2 + bx + c=0 )
         enter it as"4", "=",  "12", "=",  "9"         pressing ''=''    gives the first sol, again pressing  ''="                 gives second soln. for the problem.
 *  2) Equation in general form 
 solving above problem in non standard way...
write the above eqn  i.e.    "4x2 +12x + 9=0"    in same format, writing vaiable    ''x''    by pressing ALPHA key then  '')'' key and write "='' by pressing ''ALPHA'' key then   ''CALC'' key.
for sol press  ''SOLVE"  key( it can be accessed by pressing SHIFT the CALC key)
then press main     ''='' key and get the results .
* equation of  even higher degrees can be solved by this procedure


3)Use of  calci. for definite integration:     

2. matrix operation.
  a) matrix multiplication
# press MODE key
#select matrix by pressing 6
press  AC   then   SHIFT
press 4
press 1 for selecting DIM
press 1 for selecting MAT A
select type of matrix and input data
press AC
press SHIFT then 4 then
select DIM by pressing 1
select type of matrix
input value then press AC
press  SHIFT then 4
Press 3 then press SHIFT THEN 4 then 4 for MATB
press =
  b) inverse of matrix
  c)determinant of matrix
3. Indefenite integration
