and denominator 
. 
^\circ produces the degrees symbol. 
\text{Your Text Here} produces text within LaTeX. 
.
\mbox{Your Text Here} Produces text within LaTeX
\sqrt{x} produces the square root of 
. 
\sqrt[n]{x} produces the 
th root of . ![$\sqrt[n]{x}$](http://latex.artofproblemsolving.com/0/2/d/02d35112ae0400463779b8c3320f3bc597d81374.png)
a\equiv b \pmod{c} produces is equivalent to mod 
. 
See Modular Arithmetic
\binom{9}{3} produces 9 choose 3.
{n}\choose{r} produces n choose r. 
x^{y} produces x to the power of y. 
x_{y} produces x with y in subscript. 
\rightarrow produces an arrow to the right. 
\leftarrow produces an arrow to the left.

\neq produces a not equal to sign. 
\infty produces an infinity sign. 
\perp produces a perpendicular sign. 
\angle produces an angle sign. 
\triangle produces a triangle. 
\ldots produces three dots at the bottom of a line (ellipsis). 
\cdots produces three dots in the middle of a line (as in a series sum or product). 
\times produces an 
as used in multiplication
\otimes produces a 
Also note that you do not have to use braces, "{" and "}", when you only want one character in the operation.
Examples
- x^y is the same as x^{y}.
- x_y is the same as x_{y}.
- BUT x^10 is not the same as x^{10}.
