If you're studying a course with maths, some of the tasks will give you the option to input mathematical or chemical formulae.

In the video below you'll see a quick example of how you can use the math editor. Or, if you'd prefer to read instructions, check out the explanations and screenshots below the video.

Some tasks will immediately pop up with the math editor when you put your cursor in the blank space.

Some tasks let you use normal text and equations. In those tasks, to get the math editor, look for the √x button.

You can type normal text, then just put your cursor where ever you want to put a formula, and select √x . This brings up the editor with commonly used notation.

Sometimes you might be given the option to use a different keypad from the dropdown.

To create your equation, simply add the parts you need by selecting the notation. Use your cursor or left/right keys to get to the part of the equation you want to edit.

Once you've entered your equation, select APPLY. It will display with a dotted line.

You can re-edit your work by double-clicking within the dotted line.
