NAME

\eqalign - Used for equation alignment; for aligning multi-line displays at a single place.

SYNOPSIS

{ \eqalign{ <math> & <math> \cr <repeat as needed> } }

DESCRIPTION

\eqalign command is used for equation alignment; for aligning multi-line displays at a single place. The ampersand is placed where alignment is desired; a double-backslash can be used in place of the \cr ; the final \\ or \cr is optional; supports only a single \tag, which is vertically centered.

EXAMPLE

  1. \eqalign{
    3x - 4y &= 5\cr
    x  +  7 &= -2y
    }
    
    $ \eqalign{ 3x - 4y &= 5\cr x + 7 &= -2y } $
  2. \eqalign{
    (a+b)^2 &= (a+b)(a+b) \\
            &= a^2 + ab + ba + b^2 \\
            &= a^2 + 2ab + b^2
    }
    
    $ \eqalign{ (a+b)^2 &= (a+b)(a+b) \\ &= a^2 + ab + ba + b^2 \\ &= a^2 + 2ab + b^2 } $
  3. \left\{
    \eqalign{
    a &= 1\\
    b &= 2\\
    c &= 3
    }\right\}
    \qquad
    \eqalign{
    ax + by &= c \\
     x + 2y &= 3
     }
    
    $ \left\{ \eqalign{ a &= 1\\ b &= 2\\ c &= 3 }\right\} \qquad \eqalign{ ax + by &= c \\ x + 2y &= 3 } $
