formula
A mathematical formula.
Can be displayed inline with text or as a separate block.
Example
#set text("New Computer Modern")
Let $a$, $b$, and $c$ be the side
lengths of right-angled triangle.
Then, we know that:
$ a^2 + b^2 = c^2 $
Prove by induction:
$ sum_(k=1)^n k = (n(n+1)) / 2 $

Syntax
