Abstract
This is the homework template I use for math and physics classes.
\documentclass[12pt,oneside]{article}
% This package simply sets the margins to be 1 inch.
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
% This removes page numbers.
\pagenumbering{gobble}
% These packages include nice commands from AMS-LaTeX
\usepackage{amssymb,amsmath,amsthm}
% Make the space between lines slightly more
% generous than normal single spacing, but compensate
% so that the spacing between rows of matrices still
% looks normal. Note that 1.1=1/.9090909...
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1.1}
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{.91}
% Define an environment for exercises.
\newenvironment{exercise}[1]{\vspace{.5cm}\noindent\textbf{#1 \hspace{.05em}}}{}
% Allow for underlining.
\usepackage[normalem]{ulem}
% define shortcut commands for commonly used symbols
