Formula Latex Meaning

This document discusses LaTeX, a markup language for entering mathematical formulas into word processors like Apple Pages. It provides examples of common LaTeX formulas along with their syntax, such as \sqrt for square roots. Functions for converting between degrees and radians and calculating line distances in SVG/JavaScript are also included with their LaTeX representations. Resources for using LaTeX in Pages are listed at the end.

LaTex

Many word processors / editors allow mathematical formulae to be entered


using a markup language called LaTex. Apple ‘Pages’ application allows
formulae to be entered using both LaTex and MathML markup. To enter a
formula in Pages you must bring up the formula editing window: ‘Insert’ ->
‘Equation’. Then enter the appropriate LaTex command from below. It will be
inserted at the current cursor location.

Here are some common examples.


Unfortunately you can’t change the formula font.
