Math expressions

Math expressions are displayed with MathJax, based on TeX math syntax. Inline math expressions are enclosed by $, block math are enclosed by $ tag. You may want to go to "Source" mode for math tags, as WYSIWYG editor will escape HTML tags for you. Example This is the equation of solving ax^2 + bx + c = 0 for x: [itex] x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$  This is the equation of solving$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$for$x\$:

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
