2 Equations are in LaTeX

Simple equations can be used with the word processing features.

ax2 + bx + c = 0           or          x = a/b

34 = 81

You can add special characters such as the Greek alphabet

sin θ = 1.00               θ = 45.0 degrees = 45.0°                   5.67 Ω     ¼€

Free, open source software that writes equations that look good on the web and in print.

x=ab

You can bold them.

x=abc

x=y

Forcegravity=Gm1m2r2

bax2dx

bax2dx

bax2dx

F=md2xdt2

Ax=f(x)x

tanθ=sinθcosθ

 

This is what it looks like in the Admin mode.  I just did a screen capture and then cut and pasted it into the book.

 

There is a LaTeX cheat sheet.
