MATH Writing your equation
- Use your computer keyboard to type your equation. You can use numbers, letters, or any other symbol on your computer keyboard.
- Use the extension's math keyboard to click on symbols, such as integrals, sigma, fractions, and more.
- Move around your equation with the mouse, or use the arrow keys:
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| Right Arrow | Move the cursor forward. Useful to get out of an operation — for example, if you are inside a square root, the right arrow moves the cursor out of it. |
| Left Arrow | Move the cursor back. |
| Up Arrow | Create an exponent. |
| Down Arrow | Create a subscript. |
