Google Calculator

Posted by Will | Filed under Web

Did you know that Google search can return the results of complex equations? What’s great about it is you can often write equations in plain English.

I would safely say that I use Google for calculation more often than I use the Windows calculator for the simple reason that my web browser is always open. I’m also willing to bet Google would return the result faster than the time it would take me to open my desktop calculator application.

Below are some of the different types of math queries you can enter directly into Google’s search field:

cosine of 90 degrees
93.4853 degrees in radians
13 to the power of 9
75 miles per hour in kilometers per hour
how many teaspoons in a cup?

You can even convert between currencies which can be handy for those online purchases.

To check out more information on what kind of equations can be queried be sure to check out the official help (and bonus points for spotting the Back to the Future reference).
