The Scientific Calculator allows you to perform a variety of basic and advanced mathematical calculations. Enter the required numbers and select the operation or function to get the results instantly.

Scientific Calculation Features

The scientific calculator offers two modes: Basic and Advanced. In the Basic mode, you can perform simple arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The Advanced mode includes trigonometric functions, logarithms, and exponential calculations.

Result = Operation(Number1, Number2)
Advanced Result = Function(Angle)

Variables:

  • Number1 and Number2 are the input values for basic calculations.
  • Operation refers to the arithmetic operation performed on the numbers.
  • Angle is the input value for trigonometric functions.
  • Function refers to the advanced mathematical function applied to the angle.

To perform a calculation, enter the required values, select the appropriate operation or function, and click on the calculate button. The result will be displayed instantly.
