What were you trying to do?
Type in an expression.
What's wrong:
Maple misaligns the output:
> eq1 := sqrt(1 - sin(theta)^2/(1 + a^2 + 2 * a * cos(theta)))/ (1 + a^2 + 2 * a * cos(theta));
> / 2 \1/2
| sin(theta) |
|1 - -----------------------|
| 2 |
\ 1 + a + 2 a cos(theta)/
eq1 := --------------------------------
2
1 + a + 2 a cos(theta)
What should have happened:
Note that the first line is offset to the right by a space. If
I type "eq1;" again, it prints it properly.
