Calculator: Ti 83 + Size: 2189 bytes Language: asm (nostub) ============ INTRODUCTION ============ This program will help you find formulas for the sides, angles and the area in a right or non right triangle. You tell the program which other objects you know, and it will choose the correct formula for you. «««««««««« How to use «««««««««« 1. Start the program with Asm(prgmITF This is an assembly program, and it can't be run by just selecting it in the program menu and pressing enter. Instead, pick Asm( from CATALOG, then choose ITF from the program menu and press [enter] 2. Choose the triangle type; right or non right 3. Choose which object you wish to find the formula for. A triangle with labels is drawn on the screen, press [graph] to draw the triangle in another view. 3. Now you must tell the program what other objects you know. This is done by pressing the corresponding F1-F5 keys, also named 'soft keys'. The program will display a formula if it finds any suitable. 4. Pressing [clear] will bring you back to the main menu and from there, you can quit ITF by choosing 'quit' in the menu or pressing [clear] again. «««««««««««««« FORMULA SYNTAX «««««««««««««« All formulas are displayed according to ti83+ input syntax, this will mean that sin(A)/sin(B)*a is sin(A) ----- * a sin(B) ITF uses the following methods: sine cosine tangent law of sines, cosines the area law pythagoran Theorem If you have any ideas/bug reports/comments, feel free to email me. and don't forget to visit our homepage. «««««««« Adresses «««««««« e-mail: okvin@tiscali.se Website: http://cirrus.tigalaxy.com
