In this lesson, you'll learn how to configure your graphing calculator using the MODE and FORMAT menus. The MODE key allows you to switch between normal and scientific modes, adjust the number of decimal places, and choose between radians and degrees. The FORMAT key is used for graphing and allows you to turn on or off the axes and grid. It's important to not accidentally turn off the axes or grid, as this can cause confusion when graphing.

Staff Review
This lesson goes through some slightly more complicated menus and operations on the TI graphing calculator. It shows how the menus work as well as what the options mean. This is a good secondary TI calculator tutorial once you have the basics of the arithmetic operations down.
