The bottom row of buttons in the toolbox lets you insert commonly used math operations. You can either use the icons, or your type them from your keyboard:
Symbol Icon |
Function Call / Reserved Word |
|
sqrt(value) |
|
abs(value) |
|
piecewise({expression1, domain1},{expression2,domain2}...,{last expression, otherwise}) |
|
pi |
The buttons in the other rows are available for use with any of the Annotate tools. These symbols are not used in Math Illustrations' algebra engine, but may be useful in creating worksheets and tests.
Use the symbols from the data entry window of the Annotate tools. Simply click the symbol you need as you type.
When you are finished with the annotation, press enter.
