## Math Notation Help

This glossary will help you build complex mathematical equations using the Tex markup language. This will involve using @@ or $$before and after the expression to display the desired results.

(with specific sizing):$$x^{\small2}=a^{\small{m+2n}}$$gives $x^{\small2}=a^{\small{m+2n}}$ • Combine superscripting with subscripting (command character "_"). Syntax: Expr_{subExpr}^{supExpr}. • Ex.:$$A_{\small{i,j,k}}^{\small{-n+2}}$$gives $A_{\small{i,j,k}}^{\small{-n+2}}$ #### variables • Variables in formulas are rendered in italic roman font face, which is a widely used convention. • Following this convention, constants are shown as non-italic. • Exp.:$$f(x)=3a+x$$gives $f(x)=3a+x$ ### 03 FONT STYLES #### \LARGE (all capital letters) • Everthing following the \LARGE command will be output in the largest predefined font size until the system encounters another font size command. • Note: This command is case sensitive, since large, Large and LARGE are different sizes! • Ex.:$$\LARGE~3x$$gives $\LARGE~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, #### \Large (L capital letter) • Everthing following the \Large command will be output in the second largest font size until the system encounters another font size command. • Note: This command is case sensitive, since large, Large and LARGE are different sizes! • Ex.:$$\Large~3x$$gives $\Large~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, #### \large (all lower case letters) • Everthing following the \large command will be output in the large font size until the system encounters another font size command. • Note: This command is case sensitive, since large, Large and LARGE are different sizes! • Ex.:$$\large~3x$$gives $\large~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, fs{3} #### \normalsize • Everthing following the \normalsize command will be output in the smallest predefined font size until the system encounters another font size command. • \normalsize is the default font size, i.e. the size automatically chosen if there is no font size command • Ex.:$$\normalsize~3x$$gives $\normalsize~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, #### \small • \small • Ex.:$$\small~3x$$gives $\small~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, #### \tiny • Everthing following the \tiny command will be output in the smallest predefined font size until the system encounters another font size command. • Ex.:$$\tiny~3x$$gives $\tiny~3x$  Keyword(s): font size, #### absolute font sizes (overview)  Absolute Font Sizes Command Example Result \tiny$$\tiny 3x$$$\tiny 3x$ \small$$\small 3x$$$\small 3x$ \normalsize (default)$$\normalsize 3x$$or just$$3x$$$\normalsize 3x$ \large$$\large 3x$$$\large 3x$ \Large$$\Large 3x$$$\Large 3x$ \LARGE$$\LARGE 3x$$$\LARGE 3x$ \huge and \Huge are not supported by the mimeTeX filter ### 04 DELIMITERS (PARENTHESES, BRACES,...) #### angle bracket • Syntax: \left<...\right> • Ex.:$$\left<f,g\right> gives
