Itemize Equation Resolution For Free

Displaying long equations For equations longer than a line use the multline environment. Insert a double backslash to set a point for the equation to be broken. The first part will be aligned to the left and the second part will be displayed in the next line and aligned to the right.

By using the align environment instead of equation environment, along with breakline command. For example, say you want to break the following equation into two lines, You can do so by using the align environment as follows: \begin{align}

The \bullet command is defined for use in math mode, so you need to write $\bullet$ (or \(\bullet\) ) to use this command within your text. If you use \bullet outside math mode it will generate the error Missing $ inserted .

To change the font size of equations in Latex, use the command \begin{equation}\fontsize{size}{baselineskip}\end{equation} where size is the size of the font in points, and baselineskip is the vertical spacing between lines.

Just put \small before the equation and \normalsize after it if you want to shrink the font, but it's usually better to use an ams multi-line equation environment than to change font size.

Multiple Equations In general, the command \\ signifies a line break and within the correct math mode environment, it can start a new equation line. Try the example on the right which sets the same multiple equations in several ways. Observe that the equation environment does not even allow line breaks.

You can reduce the font size of the matrix limited by a group and/or adjust the command \arraycolsep to lower the column spacing.
