cancel

The cancel extension implements the cancel package from LaTeX, which provides a means of “crossing out” sub-expressions in various ways. See the cancel CTAN page for more information and documentation. See also the enclose extension for some alternative approaches to crossing out sub-expressions.

This package defines the following macros:

\cancel{math}

Strikeout math from lower left to upper right.

\bcancel{math}

Strikeout math from upper left to lower right.

\xcancel{math}

Strikeout math with an “X”.

\cancelto{value}{math}

Strikeout math with an arrow going to value.

Some examples are as follow:

This extension is loaded automatically when the autoload extension is used. To load the cancel extension explicitly, add '[tex]/cancel' to the load array of the loader block of your MathJax configuration, and add 'cancel' to the packages array of the tex block.

window.MathJax = {
  loader: {load: ['[tex]/cancel']},
  tex: {packages: {'[+]': ['cancel']}}
};

Alternatively, use \require{cancel} in a TeX expression to load it dynamically from within the math on the page, if the require extension is loaded.
