I know that
I have opend the calculator
but I want to pass the equation to the calculator as input & take the answer back to my application

The case of passing an equation to the Windows built in calculator as input & taking the output answer back to your application is totally unreachable, becuase Windows built in Calcular is not as one Form in your project, that you can
code and modify.

Even if you got some techniques to pass input from your application to the Windows built in Calculator, you will not get a trick to get the results back to your application, becuase this calculator is an exe file located in your Computer.

so, you have to find some open source Scientific Calculaters out there, and add your custom codes to do your operations.

Solution 3

You have to create your own.

Check the below articles. They might help.

1. VB.Net Calculator[^].
2. A Calculator Project in VB NET[^].
3. Else try more from Google[^].

And if you want to do it is javaScript then check my answer How to create Calculator popup using javascript or jquery?[^].

Thanks...
