  One of the most powerful features of WordPress.com is LaTeX support. Using latex, one can write mathematical formulae very easily. You just need to type $latex <your latex code>$. For example, `$latex displaystyle {sum_{i=0}^{infty}} sin^i theta cos itheta $, would render this as an images: http://s0.wp.com/latex.php?latex=+%5Cdisplaystyle+%7B%5Csum_%7Bi%3D0%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%7D+%5Csin%5Ei+%5Ctheta+%5Ccos+i%5Ctheta&bg=ffffff&fg=000000&s=0 . You can also edit size and colors of the latex images. An excellent tutorial for Newbie is located at http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~dwilkins/LaTeXPrimer/ . You must try it.
