How to see results as fraction/roots
Hello.
Im new to the HP Prime, Im mostly using the matrix and vectors functions.
My issue is as simple as not being able to have my results shown as fractions and/or squareroots,etc.
For example, lets say I get a matrix like these one (an orthogonal matrix):

If I introduce it into the HP the values will be shown as decimals (i.e. -0.70710678118), etc. The thing is I need the results (for example if I calculate the square of the matrix, or whatever) to be shown as fractions and/or in exponential notation(i.e. -1/(2^(1/2)). Otherwise, using the calculator is a total waste of time.
Is there any way I can get that?

Thanks in advance.

Boris

To work with exact values you need to be in CAS mode.
