Symbol/Unicode | Big Delta/U+0394 |
---|---|
Type of symbol | Greek capital letter |
Package (requirement) | No |
Argument | No |
Latex command | \Delta |
Example | \Delta → Δ |
You can use LaTeX’s default command \Delta
to print the big Delta symbol in a LaTeX document.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\[\Delta t = t_1 - t_2 \]
\[ a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \]
\[ \sum\limits_{\Delta \epsilon I} \]
\end{document}
Output :
varDelta(𝛥) in LaTeX
You will need the amsmath package to print the varDelta symbol to a latex document. You can print this symbol in the document with the \varDelta
command included in this package.
Here you can see that there is a slight difference between the output of the \Delta
and \varDelta
commands.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
\[ \verb|\Delta|\rightarrow \Delta \quad \verb|\varDelta|\rightarrow \varDelta \]
\[ c = \varDelta c = 2\pi(r + r\varDelta)\]
\[ \verDelta r= \frac{\varDelta}{2\pi} \]
\end{document}
Output :
Bold Delta and varDelta symbol
You can use LaTeX’s default command \mathbf
to bold the delta symbol, or you can use the \bm
command from the bm package.
But the varDelta symbol cannot be bolded by the \mathbf
command, so you have to use the \bm
command of the bm package.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{bm}
\begin{document}
\[\verb|{\Delta}|\rightarrow \Delta \quad \verb|\varDelta|\rightarrow \varDelta \]
\[ \verb|\mathbf{\Delta}|\rightarrow \mathbf{\Delta} \quad \verb|\bm{\Delta}|\rightarrow \bm{\Delta} \]
\[ \verb|\mathbf{\varDelta}|\rightarrow \mathbf{\varDelta} \quad \verb|\bm{\varDelta}|\rightarrow \bm{\varDelta} \]
\end{document}
Output :
Thanks for notifying me, it has been fixed.
