1 Word Processing Mathematics

2 Word Processing  More professional  Don’t use handwritten symbols  Don’t use poorly word processed symbols

3 Word Processing  Ex: Which looks better to you? x^2 = 9 \/x^2 = +-\/9 x = +-3

4 Word Processing  Formatting rules Use italics for:  Function names  Variables  Greek letters Use standard text for all other symbols

5 Word Processing  Two ways to typeset mathematical expressions: Formatting characters and inserting symbols Using Microsoft Equation Editor

6 Word Processing  Inserting Symbols Click on “Insert” Click on “Symbol”

7 Word Processing  Inserting Symbols Choose subset: e.g. Mathematical Operators Pick from the set of symbols displayed. Hit insert to put that symbol in your document

8 Word Processing  Inserting symbols: A little cumbersome to do for lots of symbols Not every symbol is represented  Ex. Typeset the following formulas: P(E) + P(E C ) = 1 A = πr 2 ≈ 3.14r 2

9 Word Processing  Microsoft Equation Editor Click on “Insert” Click on “Object”

10 Word Processing  Microsoft Equation Editor Scroll to Microsoft Equation 3.0 Click “OK”

11 Word Processing  Microsoft Equation Editor Relational Symbols Spacing Set theory Misc. Greek letters (lower & uppercase) Grouping Symbols Fractions & Radicals Summation Notation Exponents & subscripts Type your math text here Operator Symbols: Multiplication, etc.

12 Word Processing  Microsoft Equation Editor The “Style” menu will control how your text appears. If you want to text mathematics in italics, use the “Math” option. Anything you type will automatically be italized. Note: you won’t be able to put blank spaces in this mode with the spacebar button. If you only want plain text, then you click on “Text”, and you can type like you would in a word document

13 Word Processing  Microsoft Equation Editor The Format menu will be used to control the alignment of your text. Clicking on this will align the equations along the equal sign.

14 Word Processing  Good vs Bad Word Processing f(x)f(x) or f(x) log x = 3log x = 3 sin θ sin θ A = πr 2 A = πr^2 R(q) = q · D(q) R(q) = q * D(q)

15 Word Processing  Venn Diagrams in Microsoft Word Click on “Insert” Click on “Diagram”

16 Word Processing  Venn Diagrams in Microsoft Word Choose “Venn Diagram” Click “OK”

17 Word Processing  Venn Diagrams in Microsoft Word

18 Word Processing  Making a template Venn Diagram Right-click on top circle and delete shape

19 Word Processing  Making a template Venn Diagram Right-click on circle and select “Format AutoShape”

20 Word Processing  Making a template Venn Diagram Change to “No Fill” Change to “Black” Click “OK”

21 Word Processing  Making a template Venn Diagram Repeat what we did in the last slide for the other circle  And here’s what you get:

22 Word Processing  Hit the “Print Screen” button on your keyboard  Open Paint Brush and Paste  Then copy only the Venn Diagram you created  Select All and Delete  Then Paste your Venn Diagram  Put a rectangular boarder around it

23 Word Processing  You should now have a template Venn Diagram  MUST include diagram for probability problems  You don’t have to use this method for making the Venn Diagram  You’re welcome to create your own on the computer
