MathML Demo: <msqrt>, <mroot> - radicals

NOTES:
  1. Alternate stylesheets are available from: "View -> Use StyleSheet -> TeX | Mathematica"
  2. Click on a MathML fragment to view its WYSIWYG source.
  3. In the examples below, the text won't be allowed to decrease pass the scriptminsize or your browser's minimum allowable font size -- this can be set with, e.g, user_pref("font.minimum-size.x-western", 10). To see the effect of the gradual decrease induced by changes in script levels more clearly, you may have to increase your default font size in the menu: "Edit -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Fonts".
    • Here is how the alphabet looks like at scriptminsize: a, b, c ... x, y, z
    • Here is how greek letters look like at scriptminsize: α, β, γ ..., ψ, ω, ϑ, ϒ, ϖ
    • Here is how numbers look like at scriptminsize: 0, 1, 2, ..., 10, 11, 12, ...
  4. You can use "View -> Text Zoom" in the usual way to zoom the MathML text along with the other text.
  5. There is a tracker bug where you can report rendering errors on the demos.

MathML has two root objects, an <msqrt> x and an <mroot> x 3 . These are pretty simple. About all you can do with them is see how the rendering stretches them in various ways: horizontally sin x cos y , vertically 1 2 3 4 and det ( 1 2 3 4 ) 2 , as well as 2 x y z w , 2 1 2 3 4 , and 2 det ( 1 2 3 4 ) .

The formula of Binet shows how the n-th term in the Fibonacci series can be expressed using roots f n = 1 5 [ ( 1 + 5 2 ) n - ( 1 - 5 2 ) n ]
