Yes. It's great to be able to use a LaTeX-formatted equation into a regular Pandoc Markdown document.

BTW, for those wanting to learn more about how to use LaTeX, you might try writing your doc in Markdown, pandoc it into LaTeX, and then look at that LaTeX output in your editor.

I'll add though, that with LaTeX I had to write markup. With Markdown I just write.
