Hi Everyone,
Today lets discuss something worthwhile specially for those who are into mathematics and teaching it in a daily basis.
If you are in a teaching position specially Mathematics then it would really be hard for you to type a test paper that consist of a lot of equations or else you need to use some software which in turn might cost you a bit for signup facilities.
This blog is in reference to one of the most commonly faced problem of writing a mathematical equation in a question paper, and of course is also being published on request of one of my regular viewer.
So let see what comes next.....
Now a days most extensively used writing software i.e. MS Word can be fluently used in order to make these works easier just need a little bit of guidance along the path... (Guidance = My Blogs ;) )
Let us suppose that the equation that we need to type in is (x^2-16)/(x^2+18x+81) in a mathematical view with proper stacked equation type.
First of all in an open MS Word file go to the insert tab which will look like the one shown below:
Next, Go to the equation button within the Insert tab to right corner of the screen.
Once you click on the equation button you can see a series of symbols and equations in the list which may confuse you by looking somewhat like this in the picture..
Once done with that, you can see a box which appears in the writing area, where now you can go and start writing the equation but wait...you are still confused as to how to go about writing it.... no worries just see how it goes...
Once the box appears you can now click on the box and then click on the option named "Fraction" and then go to the first option that gives the name as "Stacked Fraction". This will look something like
Once you get there you can now click on the box on the numerator where you want the exponential of "X"....see how it is done...
Once you do that, just continue typing the rest of the part in the numerator i.e. (x^2-16), but remember you have just typed x^2 through the equation tab, now you just need to type the rest i.e. (-16) which can be typed normally. It looks something like this..
Post that now lets get down to the denominator, and here aswell we need an exponential of X so just follow the same method after clicking in the lower half of the box. and type the rest of the numbers and symbols.
Once you complete writing the equation it should look something like this.....
Enjoy learning....
