You can use various delimiters with \left and \right:
Feature | Syntax | How it looks rendered | |
---|---|---|---|
Parentheses | \left ( \frac{a}{b} \right ) | <math>\left ( \frac{a}{b} \right )</math> | |
Brackets | \left [\frac{a}{b}] \quad \left \lbrack \frac{a}{b} \right \rbrack | <math>\left [\frac{a}{b}] \quad \left \lbrack \frac{a}{b} \right \rbrack</math> | |
Braces | \left \{ \frac{a}{b} \right \} \quad \left \lbrace \frac{a}{b} \right \rbrace | <math>\left \{ \frac{a}{b} \right \} \quad \left \lbrace \frac{a}{b} \right \rbrace</math> | |
Angle brackets | \left \langle \frac{a}{b} \right \rangle | <math>\left \langle \frac{a}{b} \right \rangle</math> | |
Bars and double bars | \left | \frac{a}{b} \right \vert \left \Vert \frac{c}{d} \right \| | <math>\left | \frac{a}{b} \right \vert \left \Vert \frac{c}{d} \right \|</math> | |
Floor and ceiling functions: | \left \lfloor \frac{a}{b} \right \rfloor \left \lceil \frac{c}{d} \right \rceil | <math>\left \lfloor \frac{a}{b} \right \rfloor \left \lceil \frac{c}{d} \right \rceil</math> | |
Slashes and backslashes | \left / \frac{a}{b} \right \backslash | <math>\left / \frac{a}{b} \right \backslash</math> | |
Up, down and up-down arrows | \left \uparrow \frac{a}{b} \right \downarrow \quad \left \Uparrow \frac{a}{b} \right \Downarrow \quad \left \updownarrow \frac{a}{b} \right \Updownarrow | <math>\left \uparrow \frac{a}{b} \right \downarrow \quad \left \Uparrow \frac{a}{b} \right \Downarrow \quad \left \updownarrow \frac{a}{b} \right \Updownarrow</math> | |
Delimiters can be mixed, as long as \left and \right match |
\left [0,1]\right ) \left \langle \psi \right | |
<math>\left [0,1]\right )</math> <math>\left \langle \psi \right |</math> |
|
Use \left. and \right. if you don't want a delimiter to appear: |
\left . \frac{A}{B} \right \} \to X | <math>\left . \frac{A}{B} \right \} \to X</math> | |
Size of the delimiters | \big( \Big( \bigg( \Bigg( ... \Bigg] \bigg] \Big] \big] | <math>\big( \Big( \bigg( \Bigg( ... \Bigg] \bigg] \Big] \big]</math> | |
\big\{ \Big\{ \bigg\{ \Bigg\{ ... \Bigg\rangle \bigg\rangle \Big\rangle \big\rangle | <math>\big\{ \Big\{ \bigg\{ \Bigg\{ ... \Bigg\rangle \bigg\rangle \Big\rangle \big\rangle</math> | ||
\big\| \Big\| \bigg\| \Bigg\| ... \Bigg| \bigg| \Big| \big| | <math>\big\| \Big\| \bigg\| \Bigg\| ... \Bigg| \bigg| \Big| \big|</math> | ||
\big\lfloor \Big\lfloor \bigg\lfloor \Bigg\lfloor ... \Bigg\rceil \bigg\rceil \Big\rceil \big\rceil | <math>\big\lfloor \Big\lfloor \bigg\lfloor \Bigg\lfloor ... \Bigg\rceil \bigg\rceil \Big\rceil \big\rceil</math> | ||

Note that TeX handles most spacing automatically, but you may sometimes want manual control.

Due to the default css
img.tex &#123; vertical&#45;align&#58; middle&#59; &#125;
an inline expression like <math>\int_{-N}^{N} e^x\, dx</math> should look good.
If you need to align it otherwise, use &lt;font style&#61;&quot;vertical&#45;align&#58;&#45;100%&#59;&quot;&gt;&lt;math&gt;...&lt;/math&gt;&lt;/font&gt; and play with the vertical&#45;align argument until you get it right; however, how it looks may depend on the browser and the browser settings.
Also note that if you rely on this workaround, if/when the rendering on the server gets fixed in future releases, as a result of this extra manual offset your formulae will suddenly be aligned incorrectly. So use it sparingly, if at all.
Equations can use color:
-
&#123;\color&#123;Blue&#125;x^2&#125;+&#123;\color&#123;Brown&#125;2x&#125;&#45;&#123;\color&#123;OliveGreen&#125;1&#125;
- <math>{\color{Blue}x^2}+{\color{Brown}2x}-{\color{OliveGreen}1}</math>
-
x_&#123;1,2&#125;&#61;\frac&#123;&#45;b\pm\sqrt&#123;\color&#123;Red&#125;b^2&#45;4ac&#125;&#125;&#123;2a&#125;
- <math>x_{1,2}=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{\color{Red}b^2-4ac}}{2a}</math>
Note that color should not be used as the only way to identify something because color blind people may not be able to distinguish between the two colors.
<math>ax^2 + bx + c = 0</math> <math>ax^2 + bx + c = 0</math> <math>x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}</math> <math>x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}</math> <math>2 = \left( \frac{\left(3-x\right) \times 2}{3-x} \right)</math> <math>2 = \left( \frac{\left(3-x\right) \times 2}{3-x} \right)</math> <math>S_{new} = S_{old} + \frac{ \left( 5-T \right) ^2} {2}</math> <math>S_{new} = S_{old} + \frac{ \left( 5-T \right) ^2} {2}</math> <math>\int_a^x \int_a^s f(y)\,dy\,ds = \int_a^x f(y)(x-y)\,dy</math> <math>\int_a^x \int_a^s f(y)\,dy\,ds = \int_a^x f(y)(x-y)\,dy</math> <math>\sum_{m=1}^\infty\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{m^2\,n}{3^m\left(m\,3^n+n\,3^m\right)}</math> <math>\sum_{m=1}^\infty\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{m^2\,n} {3^m\left(m\,3^n+n\,3^m\right)}</math> <math>u + p(x)u' + q(x)u=f(x),\quad x>a</math> <math>u'' + p(x)u' + q(x)u=f(x),\quad x>a</math> <math>|\bar{z}| = |z|, |(\bar{z})^n| = |z|^n, \arg(z^n) = n \arg(z)\,</math> <math>|\bar{z}| = |z|, |(\bar{z})^n| = |z|^n, \arg(z^n) = n \arg(z)\,</math> <math>\lim_{z\rightarrow z_0} f(z)=f(z_0)\,</math> <math>\lim_{z\rightarrow z_0} f(z)=f(z_0)\,</math> <math>\phi_n(\kappa) = \frac{1}{4\pi^2\kappa^2} \int_0^\infty \frac{\sin(\kappa R)}{\kappa R} \frac{\partial}{\partial R}\left[R^2\frac{\partial]\,dR</math> <math>\phi_n(\kappa) = \frac{1}{4\pi^2\kappa^2} \int_0^\infty \frac{\sin(\kappa R)}{\kappa R} \frac{\partial}{\partial R}\left[R^2\frac{\partial D_n(R)}{\partial R}\right]\,dR</math> <math>\phi_n(\kappa) = 0.033C_n^2\kappa^{-11/3},\quad \frac{1}{L_0}\ll\kappa\ll\frac{1}{l_0}\,</math> <math>\phi_n(\kappa) = 0.033C_n^2\kappa^{-11/3},\quad \frac{1}{L_0}\ll\kappa\ll\frac{1}{l_0}\,</math> <math>f(x) = \begin{cases}1 & -1 \le x < 0 \\ \frac{1}{2} & x = 0 \\ 1 - x^2 & 0 < x \le 1\end{cases}</math> <math>f(x) = \begin{cases}1 & -1 \le x < 0 \\ \frac{1}{2} & x = 0 \\ 1 - x^2 & 0 < x\le 1\end{cases}</math> <math>{}_pF_q(a_1,...,a_p;c_1,...,c_q;z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(a_1)_n\cdot\cdot\cdot(a_p)_n}{(c_1)_n\cdot\cdot\cdot(c_q)_n}\frac{z^n}{n!}\,</math> <math>{}_pF_q(a_1,...,a_p;c_1,...,c_q;z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(a_1)_n\cdot\cdot\cdot(a_p)_n}{(c_1)_n\cdot\cdot\cdot(c_q)_n}\frac{z^n}{n!}\,</math>This page was modified from Wikipedia help page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula
