Template:Use TeX
 | This image shows some kind of formula that could be converted to TeX. Storing formulas as images makes it harder to change them. TeX also helps making sure that they all use the same font and size. If you know how to set this formula in TeX, use this template.
{{Use TeX|1=Here goes the formula}}
