$(x)"Input Number"$

Tags

The Reciprocal calculator returns one divided by the input value (known as the reciprocal or multiplicative inverse).

INSTRUCTIONS: Enter the following:

(x) Input number

Reciprocal (x^-1): The calculator returns the reciprocal as a real number.

The Math / Science

The reciprocal, also known as the mathematical inverse, formula for a number is:

$1/x = x^-1$

Scientific Calculator Functions

Basic Math Functions:

x^-1: This is the mathematical inverse or reciprocal of x, which is also 1/x
x! : This is the factorial of x
x²: This is the square of x
x³: This is the cube of x
x^y: This is x to the y^th power
10^x: This is ten to the x^th power.
$sqrt(x)$ : This is the square root of x
$root(3)(x)$ : This is the cube root of x
$root(y)(x)$ : This is the y^th root of x
Rand: This returns a random number between 0 and 1.
log(x): This the base 10 log of x
ln(x) : This provides the natural log of x
MOD: This provides the integer remainder of x/y.
GCD: This is the greatest common divisor of two numbers

Math Constants:

e - this is the base of the natural log
π - This is the base of Euclidean geometry

Trigonometry Functions:

sin(θ) : This is the sine function of an angle.
cos(θ): This is the cosine function of an angle.
tan(θ): This is the tangent function of an angle.
sin^-1(x): This is the angle from the inverse of a sine.
cos^-1(x): This is the angle from the inverse of a cosine.
tan^-1(x): This is the angle from the inverse of a tangent.
