In Word 20 10, you can use a more beautiful and convenient formula editor: insert → symbol → formula, and the shortcut key is Alt+=. All available symbols can be found in the Insert tab of the ribbon, but this is not very effective. So the faster way is to enter these symbols with the keyboard. Most available symbols can be directly input by using the keyboard. The following table lists some.

To insert a formula, first press the shortcut key Alt+= and enter the formula in the formula editing box that appears. For example, if you want to enter the lowercase Greek letter "α", just enter "\alpha" in the state of half-angle symbol, and then enter a space, and the "\alpha" just entered will become the required lowercase Greek letter "α".

It should be noted that if you want "sin", "lim" and "log" to be symbols composed of Latin letters, you only need to input them directly. For example, enter "sin? cos？” , enter "sin" first, and then enter a space. A dotted box will appear after "sin". When the dotted box is light blue, you can enter "X" and click →, and the cursor will move out of the light blue box to continue input.

In the process of input, you should pay attention to using the direction keys (→, ←, ↑, ↓) to change the current input field, which is especially important in formulas with multiple operators.
