Equations must be enclosed by $ sign or $$

1. enclose formulas in single dollar sign $ your equation $ for inline equations.
2. enclose formulas in double dollar sign $$ your equation $$ for equation environment and start with new line.

Symbols

$\alpha$
\(\alpha\) $\beta$
\(\beta\) $\delta$
\(\delta\)
$\rho$
\(\rho\)
$\omega$
\(\omega\)
$\Omega$
\(\Omega\)
$\Delta$
\(\Delta\)

FractionsOutput

$\frac{numerator}{denominator}$ \(\frac{numerator}{denominator}\)

$\frac{a}{b}$ \(\frac{a}{b}\)

Powers Output

$a^b$
\(a^b\)

SubscriptOutput

$a_b$
\(a_b\)

Brackets

simple () are not because brackets done resize to cover content like below $(\frac{a}{b)$ \((a^2\frac{a^2}{b^2})\)
so use \left( and \right) BracketsOutput $\left($
\(\left( a \right.\)
$\right($
\(\left. a \right)\)
$\left( a \right)$
\(\left( a^2\frac{a^2}{b^2} \right)\)
$\left[$
\(\left[ a \right.\)
$\right]$
\(\left. a \right]\)
$\left[ a \right\$
\(\left[a^2\frac{a^2}{b^2} \right]\)
$E=mc^2$ \(E=mc^2\)

1. now save this as “anyfilename.md”

2. run command in the same folder as

   pandoc anyfilename.md -o anyfilename.docx

   check anyfilename.docx in the directory

Test formulas

\[E=mc^2\] \[\vec{F}=m\vec{a}\] \[S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\] \[v=u+at\] \[v^2=u^2+2as\] \[V=l\frac{\delta i}{\delta t}\] \[\nabla \times \overrightarrow E= - \frac{\partial \overrightarrow B}{\partial t}\] \[\begin{bmatrix}a\ b\ c\\d\ e\ f\\ g\ h\ i \end{bmatrix}\] \[\left|\begin{matrix}a\ b\ c\\d\ e\ f\\ g\ h\ i \end{matrix}\right|\]
