simult(coeffMatrix, constMatrix
[
, tol
]
)
⇒
matrix
Solves multiple systems of linear equations,
where each system has the same equation
coefficients but different constants.
Each column in
constMatrix
must contain the
constants for a system of equations. Each
column in the resulting matrix contains the
solution for the corresponding system.
Solve: x + 2y = 1 x + 2y = 2

sin(expression1)
⇒
expression
sin(list1)
⇒
list
sin(expression1)
returns the sine of the
argument as an expression.
sin(list1)
returns a list of the sines of all
elements in
list1
.
Note:
The argument is interpreted as either a
degree or radian angle, according to the
current angle mode. You can use
ó
or
ô
to
override the angle mode setting temporarily.

sin(squareMatrix1)
⇒
squareMatrix
Returns the matrix sine of
squareMatrix1
. This
is
not
the same as calculating the sine of each
element. For information about the
calculation method, refer to
cos()
.
squareMatrix1
must be diagonalizable. The
result always contains floating-point
numbers.
