I've written a couple tutorials on MathJax and Google Prettify for putting LaTeX and syntax highlighted code on your site.

Thanks. I already use MathJax and it is good. Is there an equivalent to MathJax for mathematical charts (e.g. y = f(x) rather than a random scatter) and/or for plane geometry (e.g. calculate angle A in the shown triangle etc.)?

MathJax has something called "JSXGraph" that I've never used. Looking at it, it might take some getting used to, but doesn't seem too bad.

What's the reasoning for making this a text post instead of submitting the URLs directly?

Because it's three links, not one.
