FAQ: What's a Kinjutsu?
Ans: Kinjutsu's literal meaning is "Forbidden Techniques" in Japanese.

Please see Resources for User Guides of some Casio Calculator units for your reference.
This module discusses basic unit conversions and constants. Familiarized these tools and read about them more on your calculator's user guide.
This module discusses applicable kinjutsu for Algebra, Trigonometry and Plane Geometry (not so much for plane geometry since its just direct substitution for most of it).
Please see Resources for some uncommon trigonometric identities and a guide on clock problems for your reference.
This module discusses basic calculator statistics, some permutation and combination.
This module discusses basic calculator methods and reverse engineering.
This module discusses basic calculator methods and reverse engineering.
This module discusses basic calculator methods and reverse engineering.
This module discusses and demonstrates the meta for solving differential equations and advanced math. The forbidden techniques used for solving differential equations and Laplace Transformations are my personal favorites.
I have attached a Short Review for Second-Order Linear Homogeneous Differential Equations with Constant Coefficients in the Resources. Please memorize the general solution for the 2nd Order Differential Equations for the three cases so that you would not keep on referring to the attachment.
In this course, you will learn calculator shortcut methods, practical approaches, strategies and reverse engineering applicable especially for attacking multiple choice tests which are common in university admission exams, professional license exams, Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) exams, GREs, quiz bowls and others.
If you are preparing for a professional license exam, the math portion is usually just 15 to 30% of the total points (Philippines); for Fundamentals of Engineering Exam (US), the number of math questions just ranges from 4 to 18 questions out of 110 multiple-choice questions; and similarly in other countries, math is just relatively small percentage of the total points in order to pass. Speed up your calculator skills, develop wiser strategies, study smart to save time during your review period and spend this saved time in reviewing other professional subjects and that will give you higher chances of passing an exam.
This course covers stuff related to Algebra, Trigonometry, Plane Geometry, Analytical Geometry, Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Differential Equations and Advanced Math.
Calculator function utilization, shortcut-equations and reverse engineering will be demonstrated in an MCT format followed by practice quiz (total of 400 items).
Solve all quizzes to test your Casio Calculator mastery, I encourage that you work through all practice quizzes in a paperless manner in a way that will developed your calculator skills to solved math problems paperless!
Impress your friends, classmates, teachers and others with your Casio Calculator Kinjutsu!
