Greater-than Above Slanted Equal Above Less-than Above Slanted Equal Symbol
⪔ is a special math symbol that combines slanted equality with greater-than/less-than shapes.
U+2A94
⪔ (U+2A94) is a Unicode math character often used as a compact relational operator. It visually combines “greater-than above” and “less-than above” with a slanted equality in between. You can copy it directly or insert it using its codepoint and escapes.
Greater-than Above Slanted Equal Above Less-than Above Slanted Equal Symbol Meaning
⪔ is a Unicode math symbol whose official name is “GREATER-THAN ABOVE SLANTED EQUAL ABOVE LESS-THAN ABOVE SLANTED EQUAL.” In practice, it’s used in mathematical notation where you want a combined relational form involving both “greater-than” and “less-than” with slanted equality markers. Depending on the surrounding context and notation system, it may represent a chained or constrained relationship that includes equality-like conditions. Because it’s a dedicated Unicode character (not just a made-from-parts composition), using ⪔ directly helps maintain consistent spacing and typography across fonts and platforms.
Common uses
- •Writing specialized relational expressions in math notes and textbooks
- •Typing advanced constraints in technical documentation or academic drafts
- •Labeling or annotating diagrams and logic relationships in educational materials
- •Including the symbol in LaTeX/Unicode-friendly math text content (when supported)
- •Designing typographic symbols in UI mockups for math-heavy apps
