I need help doing LaTeX

Is there a way to manipulate the size of the brace? How can I center the cases or maybe just the vertical dots?

\[\begin{cases} na = x \\ b = x \\ c = x \\ \vdots \\ z = x \end{cases}\]

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Thank you.

Yeah. This is the basic solution. @Kaizen Cyrus you can modify the size of the brace if you use the \left and \right modificators. \left ( \cfrac{\cfrac{1}{2}}{3} \right ) will be (123)\left ( \cfrac{\cfrac{1}{2}}{3} \right ). If you have only left bracket, then use \left + bracket andright . and same way if you have only right bracket \left . and \right+bracket. Here you can see a longer guide. 3.4. Brackets and 3.5. Modificators. But you can set manually the size with \big, \Big, \bigg, \Bigg. \{ will be {, don't use only {
