LaTeX formula not displaying correctly

[ISU20CpreE]

why can't i write in LaTex i follow all the procedure. and it still doesn't show up right. for example

$$a=\frac{m1*g*sin\theta} {cos\theta} [\tex]$$

Use a '/' instead of '\' in the closing tag,

for example [ tex ] a=\frac{m1*g*sin\theta} {cos\theta} [ /tex ]

$$a=\frac{m1*g*sin\theta} {cos\theta}$$

Without the spaces in the tags. Also, you can click on the image to look at what was typed.

thanks mattmns

Im just trying out something:

[ tex ] a=\frac{m1} {cos/theta} [ /tex ]

 

[ISU20CpreE]

still trying:

$$a=\frac{m1} {cos\theta}$$

a = \frac{ m_1 g \sin \theta }{ \cos \theta }

$$a = \frac{ m_1 g \sin \theta }{ \cos \theta}$$
