AI Thread Summary
Issues with writing in LaTeX often stem from incorrect syntax, particularly with the use of tags. Users are advised to ensure that the closing tag uses a forward slash instead of a backslash, and to avoid spaces within the tags. For example, the correct format should be [tex] a=\frac{m1*g*sin\theta}{cos\theta} [/tex]. Additionally, users can experiment with LaTeX commands to see how they render, such as using various Greek letters and mathematical symbols. Proper formatting is essential for LaTeX to display equations correctly, and small errors can lead to significant display issues.

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]
 
Physics news on Phys.org
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 ]
 
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}
