Watch out math teachers, there's a new math app on the loose in town. And he is able to solve equations and explain each step. But don't worry, it still won't be able to replace you in class, although it can be used to cheat on an exam. We are talking about the Microsoft Math Solver application, a mathematical tool capable of scanning and solving many types of mathematical problems in an instant. You just have to use your mobile for it.
This is a free application available on the Google Play Store. Of course, from Microsoft they warn that it is a tool still in beta or testing state So it is possible that you run into a bug or malfunction. In our tests, so far, we have encountered some unexpected closing of the application. But it is fully functional. Especially for people like myself, who left mathematics behind many years ago.
The application is capable of solving algebra problems such as systems of equations and exponential graphs, or even solving derivatives, permutations, combinations, and other expressions much more complex than addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication So it's quite powerful for a wide variety of problems and approaches.
How to solve equations in a couple of seconds
The strong point of Microsoft Math Solver is its user experience. And it is that it makes solving equations easy for those who have no idea of ​​mathematics. Something to be thankful for is its design and operation, which makes use of the terminal's camera to scan the symbols and numbers in question. Wow, you basically have to take a picture of the equation for the app to take care of the rest. And the interesting thing is that doesn't have to be an equation written in printed characters, this app also recognizes handwriting on paper
You just have to access the application, click on the Take your own photo button and give permissions to Microsoft Math Solver to take power over the terminal's camera. A box tells you that you will have to frame the equation in question there, being able to make it larger or smaller depending on what occupies the problem.By pressing the shutter button the application captures the image and recognizes the characters almost instantly. The next step, also automatic, is to process the equation and solve it. Something that only takes a couple of seconds. Keep in mind that this process is done online, so be careful when photographing things other than equations. And, of course, you'll need an Internet connection.
After Microsoft Math Solver displays one or more solutions to the equation, as required. But what we liked the most is its didactic role in all this. And it is that you can learn step by step the resolution of the formula The reason why you get to the end. Of course, you need basic knowledge of mathematics to fully understand it.
Also by hand or in pencil
Although in the previous example we used a photograph to scan the formula, this application accepts other possibilities. Just use the tabs on the main screen, where in addition to scanning you can find the options Draw and Write With them you can use a pencil or your own finger to Write and state the equation in question. Or even use a full keyboard for it. Something that will not make you use paper in any case, or have to shamelessly photograph a problem. The rest of the process remains the same.
Don't miss the graphics
But solving equations of all kinds isn't the only thing Microsoft Math Solver does. In some of them, it even pose graphs to check the result This way you will have all the information offered by that line of numbers and letters that you didn't know how to solve a few minutes ago.You just have to scan or solve the equation with this application and review the graph among the results if it is available.
