Texas Instruments Ti-84 Plus Ce Graphing Calculator Manual
The TI-84 Plus C graphing calculator offers some very advanced functions, but to get to those advanced features, you have to know the basic keys to press. The keys to press most often appear in the following list:
Math Functions and Constants on the TI-84 Plus C Graphing Calculator
Your TI-84 Plus C graphing calculator is quite capable of helping you out with math problems and actually comes equipped with ways to include constants and to input standard elements, such as π. The following list shows some of the more common and helpful math functions:
The Basics of Graphing on Your TI-84 Plus C Graphing Calculator
You bought the TI-84 Plus C graphing calculator to help you do graphs, and help you it does. The points in the following list walk you through the steps to take to get your TI-84 Plus C to display a graph:

TI-84 Plus C Graphing Calculator Zoom Commands
The TI-84 Plus C graphing calculator not only helps you make graphs, but its Zoom commands also help you highlight specific areas of a graph, redraw graphs in certain ratios, and otherwise tweak graphs to suit your needs. The following list shows you what each Zoom command does:
ZBox: Draws a box around a portion of the graph and redraws the graph in a viewing window that has the dimensions of the box.
Zoom In: Zooms in on the graph at the location of the cursor.
Zoom Out: Zooms out on the graph at the location of the cursor.
ZDecimal: Draws the graph in a –6.6 ≤ x ≤ 6.6 and –4.1 ≤ y ≤ 4.1 window. When the graph is traced, the x-coordinate of the Trace cursor equals an integral multiple of 0.1.
ZSquare: Redraws the graph in a window that makes circles look like circles instead of ellipses.
ZStandard: Draws the graph in a –10 ≤ x ≤ 10, –10 ≤ y ≤ 10 window.
ZTrig: Draws the graph in a –11π/4 ≤ x ≤ 11π/4 and –4 ≤ y ≤ 4 window. When the graph is traced, the x-coordinate of the Trace cursor equals an integral multiple of π/24.
ZInteger: Redraws the graph so that when it is traced, the x-coordinate of the Trace cursor equals an integer.
ZoomStat: Finds an appropriate viewing window for stat plots.
ZoomFit: Finds an appropriate viewing window for graphing functions, parametric equations, polar equations, or sequences.
ZQuadrant1: This command graphs your function in a preset viewing window where 0 ≤ x ≤ 13.2 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 13.2. When you trace a function graphed in this window, the x-coordinate of the Trace cursor will be a multiple of 0.1.
ZFrac1/2: This command graphs your function in a preset viewing window where –66/2 ≤ x ≤ 66/2 and –41/2 ≤ y ≤ 41/2. When you trace a function graphed in thiswindow, the x-coordinate of the Trace cursor will be a multiple of 1/2.
ZFrac1/3, ZFrac 1/4, ZFrac1/5, ZFrac 1/8, ZFrac1/10: These commands graph your function in a preset viewing window and work in the same manner as ZFrac1/2 does. If you think of d as the denominator of your fraction, then the viewing window is –66/d ≤ x ≤ 66/d and –41/d ≤ y ≤ 41/d. Tracing with these commands let you trace the x-coordinates by multiples of 1/d.
