This document provides an overview of LaTeX, including: 1. LaTeX is a document preparation system that is useful for writing technical documents containing mathematics. It separates document content from formatting to make documents portable and modification easy. 2. The document discusses LaTeX installation, editors, basic commands and environments for formatting text, inserting images, tables, and mathematical equations. 3. It also covers features for report writing like title pages, headers and footers, page numbering, and creating indexes, tables of contents, and bibliographies.

79. MATHEMATICAL FORMULA

Donald Knuth says that his aim in
creating TEX is to beautifullytypeset
technical documents especiallythose containing a
lot of Mathematics. It is verydifficult to
produce complex mathematical formulas
using a word processor.

Package -
usepackage{amsmath,amsthm}
Symbols
➢Relation - >, < , =, Π, ∑ ,∩ ……
➢Arrow - ↑, ↔ , ← …..
➢Miscellaneous - √ , ∆, ̸ …..
➢Delimiters - [ , ] ,{ ,} ,|
➢Greek Letters – Ø, ø, α. Β, γ, η …..

81. Eg. y = mx + c
begin{displaymath}
y = mx + c
