Boxing Multiple Lines in Split
TeX - LaTeX Asked by Jaredan Durbin on April 17, 2021
I want to put a box around the final two lines in this
begin{equation}
begin{split}
leftlanglevec{u}rightrangle&=frac{1}{4}Releft(epsilon_0vec{overset{sim}{E}}cdotvec{overset{sim}{E}}^*+frac{1}{mu_0}vec{overset{sim}{B}}cdotvec{overset{sim}{B}}^*right)

I want it to pretty much look like this

I’ve tried using fbox, but I cannot seem to get it to span multiple lines keeping my paragraphing and tabs. Also sorry for the messy code!

The amsmath package provides a macro called boxed for just this purposes. Note that I encased an aligned environment inside the boxed directive. And I also replaced all instances of left(frac{omega}{c}right) with (omega/c) to achieve a more compact appearance of the formulas.
In the following solution, the = symbol is not inside the box. If it has to be inside the box, you'll need to replace

&=boxed{begin{aligned}[t]
&biggl(frac{pi B_0}{2left[(omega/c)^2-k^2right]}biggr)^{!2}
with

The Aboxed command from mathtools alows for including the alignment point in a framebox. To enclose several lines I use the multlined environment from the same package, and aligned for the lines above:

usepackage{mathtools}
