Notion Equation Cheat Sheet

If you’re working with equations in Notion, here’s a cheat sheet for commonly used symbols and commands:

Basic Math Operations

  • Addition: + or sum()
  • Subtraction: -
  • Multiplication: * or product()
  • Division: /

Exponents and Roots

  • Exponentiation:^ or **
    • Example: a^2 or a**2
  • Square Root:sqrt()
    • Example: sqrt(a)

Fractions

  • Fraction:frac()
    • Example: frac(a, b) for ��ba

Greek Letters

  • Use the backslash \ followed by the Greek letter name.
    • Example: \alpha, \beta, \gamma

Trigonometric Functions

  • Sine: sin()
  • Cosine: cos()
  • Tangent: tan()
  • Inverse Sine: asin()
  • Inverse Cosine: acos()
  • Inverse Tangent: atan()

Logarithms

  • Natural Logarithm: ln()
  • Common Logarithm (base 10): log()

Summation and Integration

  • Summation:sum()
    • Example: sum(i, 1, n, i^2) for ∑�=1��2∑i=1ni2
  • Definite Integral:int()
    • Example: int(f(x), x, a, b) for ∫���(�) ��∫abf(x)dx

Brackets and Parentheses

  • Round Brackets: ( )
  • Square Brackets: [ ]
  • Curly Braces: { }

Special Symbols

  • Infinity: infinity or \infty
  • Not Equal: != or \neq
  • Approximately Equal: approx or \approx

Matrices

  • Matrix:matrix()
    • Example: matrix([a, b], [c, d]) for a 2×2 matrix.

These are some basic elements you can use in Notion to create mathematical equations and expressions. Remember to use backslashes for special symbols and Greek letters. The sum() and product() functions can be used for summation and product notations. Experiment and combine these elements to build complex equations within Notion.
