u Unit Vector [OPTN]-[MAT]-[UntV]
Example Determine the unit vector of the vector below
Vct A = [ 5 5 ]
K2(MAT)6(g)6(g)
5(UntV)1(Vct)av(A))w
u Vector Norm (Size) [OPTN]-[MAT]-[Norm]
Example To determine the vector norm (size)
Vct A = [ 1 3 ]
K2(MAT)6(g)6(g)6(g)
1(Norm)6(g)6(g)6(g)
1(Vct)av(A))w
• You can use the “Norm” command to calculate the norm of a matrix.
10. Metric Conversion Calculations (all models
except fx-9860GII s)
You can convert values from one unit of measurement to another. Measurement units are
classified according to the following 11 categories. The indicators in the “Display Name”
column show the text that appears in the calculator’s function menu.
Display Name Category Display Name Category Display Name Category
LENG Length TMPR Temperature PRES Pressure
AREA Area VELO Velocity ENGY Energy/Work
VLUM Volume MASS Mass PWR Power
TIME Time FORC Force/Weight
You can convert from any unit in a category to any other unit in the same category.
• Attempting to convert from a unit in one category (such as “AREA”) to a unit in another
category (such as “TIME”) results in a Conversion ERROR.
• See the “Unit Conversion Command List” (page 2-55) for information about the units
included in each category.
