Initialization: |
Context("Fraction-NoDecimals"); $f1 = Formula("cos(pi)"); $f2 = Formula("sin(pi/3)"); Context()->functions->disable("All"); Context()->functions->enable("sqrt"); $answer1 = Compute("-1"); $answer2 = Compute("sqrt(3)/2"); |
Setup:
We choose a context that requires fractions as answers and does not allow decimals. After constructing the formulas involving trig functions, we disable all functions and re-enable the |
