The Mathematics Add-In from Microsoft allows you to write, insert, edit, solve and graph mathematical

equations directly in OneNote and Word. It can make writing mathematically intensive papers

significantly easier while supplying professional graphics to assist explanations.

Get the Program

Download the Mathematics Add-In from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/

Note: Make sure youre using Microsoft Office 2010.

Type OneNote add-in in the search box at the top of the window and click

Click on Microsoft Mathematics Add-In for Word and OneNote or the Application button

Inserting an equationIn Word, select either the Insert tab or the Mathematics tab and click equation. An equation box should

appear where you can type your equation, with special characters available in the ribbon.

In OneNote, there are a couple different options for inserting equations. The first is to click the

Mathematics tab, click Equation, which will insert an equation box similar to the one produced in Word.

Here you can either type your equation as in word or you can click the Ink Equation button which is

now next to the equation button in the ribbon.

This will open a window that looks like the Tablet Input panel, here you can hand write your equation

and it will be converted to text. Then click Insert to place the equation on your OneNote page.

If you are working with equations that involve complex numbers or working Trigonometric equations

you can set you preferences under the mathematics tab.

ComputingNow that you have an equation, you can compute the solution to it.

1. Highlight your equation2. Click the compute button located to the left under the mathematics tab and to

the right under the design tab. A menu will drop down from which you should select the

appropriate calculation method.

3. The solution will be displayed directly below the equation and can be copiedand pasted anywhere.

Graphing

Equations can also be graphed.

1. The equation must be set equal to a variable; 2D graphs should be equal to y, 3Dgraphs should be equal to z

2. Highlight your equation3. Click the graph button located to the left under the mathematics tab and to the

right under the design tab. A menu will drop down from which you should select

the appropriate graphing method.

4. A window showing the graph of the equation will open. In this window you canmanipulate the graph by clicking and dragging and/or by using the tools on the

left side.

5. Click the insert button to place the graph onto the OneNote page directly underyou equation.

6. To edit the graph, highlight it, click the graph button and click edit graph. Theediting window will reopen with an update button now at the bottom, which will

update the current graph or you can reinsert it if you prefer and it will place a

new graph below the original.

Points of note

When computing an equation, if you put a variable equal to the formula you will get

an exact answer out (no decimals). In order to have a decimal answer remove the variable

and click compute under the compute menu.

Once a graph has been inserted onto a page it can no longer be edited. If you want to

change it you have to re-graph the equation and edit it in the graph window and then re-

insert it.
