How to Use Our TI-84 Guides
Each guide on this page is written specifically for students using the TI-84 Plus or TI-84 Plus CE — whether you have a physical device or you're using our free online simulator. The instructions are identical because the operating system is the same. Start with the Beginner guides if you're new to graphing calculators, then move to Intermediate for stats and regression, and Advanced for calculus.
Every guide is built around a real example problem, so you can follow along step-by-step. Pair the tutorials with our online TI-84 calculator open in another tab — that way you can practice each keystroke as you read.
Most Popular TI-84 Calculator Functions
Based on student traffic, the five most-searched TI-84 functions are: 1-Var Stats (for finding mean and standard deviation), LinReg (for linear regression), nDeriv (for numerical derivatives), normalcdf (for normal distribution probabilities), and solver (for finding equation roots). If you only learn five TI-84 commands, learn these — they cover the majority of homework problems in algebra, statistics, and calculus.
