Align – Handling Brackets in Different Align Lines

alignbrackets

i want to use a big bracket (\left( , \right)) in an align-enviroment over two lines, so that

\begin{align}
0=\left(a+b+c \\
  +d+e\right)
\end{align}

which is not possible, because Latex want me to close the bracket in the same line.
Anyone an idea?

Greetings
Michael

Best Answer

You close the first line with \right. and open the second with \left.. That said, it makes no sense to number each line, so you have to use an aligned environment within an equation, say, environment. What do you align, by the way?

    \documentclass[10pt]{article}
    \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
    \usepackage{lmodern}
    \usepackage{mathtools} 

    \begin{document}

    \begin{equation}\label{myeq}
            \begin{aligned}
    0=\left(a+b+c\right.  \\
     \left.  +d+e\right)
    \end{aligned}
    \end{equation}

    \end{document}
