    Integration Ti-89
AI Thread Summary
The Ti-89 calculator is producing an unexpected result when integrating the function 1/(sinx), returning "ln[(sinx)/(cosx-1)]" instead of the desired "ln[tan(x/2)]." Users experiencing similar issues should ensure their calculator is set to the correct mode, particularly checking that the angle is in radians. If the problem persists, it is recommended to verify the calculator's operating system version, with the latest being 2.09, and consider upgrading if necessary.

I am having some problems with my Ti-89.

I am familiar with all the settings under "Mode."

However, when integrating the function 1/(sinx) the calculator returns the form "ln[(sinx)/(cosx-1)]" and NOT the form "ln[tan(x/2)]." I am completely unable to get the calculator to return the other form of the integral. I have even used other Ti-89s and they return the second form and I cannot see any difference in the settings. Can anyone help?

Are you sure your calculator has a complex format of rectangular? Also the angle should be in radians. If that doesn't work I suggest upgrading the OS on the calc. The lastest version is 2.09. You can check which version you have by going to Tools->About
 
In my discussions elsewhere, I've noticed a lot of disagreement regarding AI. A question that comes up is, "Is AI hype?" Unfortunately, when this question is asked, the one asking, as far as I can tell, may mean one of three things which can lead to lots of confusion. I'll list them out now for clarity. 1. Can AI do everything a human can do and how close are we to that? 2. Are corporations and governments using the promise of AI to gain more power for themselves? 3. Are AI and transhumans...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
