# Thread: how do you skip lines?

1. ## how do you skip lines?

Using LaTex, how do you skip lines within the same $$bracket? for example: \displaystyle cos(x) \displaystyle sin(x) 2. Originally Posted by lllll Using LaTex, how do you skip lines within the same [tex] bracket? for example: \displaystyle cos(x) \displaystyle sin(x) As you do not have a single pair of delimiters here just put a blank line between the lines: [tex]cos(x)$$

$$sin(x)$$

produces:

$\displaystyle cos(x)$

$\displaystyle sin(x)$

and:

[maTH]
\begin{array}{l}
\cos (x) \\ \\
\sin (x) \\
\end{array}
[/tex]

produces:

[maTH]
\begin{array}{l}
\cos (x) \\ \\
\sin (x) \\
\end{array}
[/tex]

Huh? So, the beginning tag is "maTH" but the ending tag is "tex"? Let me try:
[maTH]x = 3
y = 2
z = 4[/tex]

gives
$\displaystyle cos(x) \\ sin(x)$

If you want more space use, for example
Code:
\\[12pt]
$\displaystyle \cos x \\[12pt] \sin x$

Once I asked the admin if necro-posting was allowed and he said that it is.

Now, let me try again:
$\displaystyle sin x\\cos x$
