You have to use a PDF viewer that supports them. The one with the most complete support on iOS is Readdle's PDF Expert and is what I recommend far above any other. Adobe Reader has some support for calculations, mostly the built-in ones, but you can also create custom calculation JavaScript that will work, but the scripting model is very limited.

Thank you George, but the form needs to be able to be used on the iPad without having to purchase any other apps. I am not sure how the JavaScript will work, but will look into it. It would seem to me that Adobe Reader should be able to read/calculate Adobe Acrobat forms
