### 8.13 `flushright`

    \begin{flushright}
      line1 \\
      line2 \\
      ...
    \end{flushright}

An environment that creates a paragraph whose lines are flush to the right-hand margin and ragged left. If you have lines that are too long to fit the margins then LaTeX will linebreak them in a way that avoids hyphenation and stretching or shrinking spaces. To force a new line use a double backslash, `\\`. For the declaration form see \raggedleft.

For an example related to this environment, see flushleft.
