Measured Angle With Open Arm Ending In Arrow Pointing Left And Down Symbol
⦯ denotes a measured angle with an open arm ending in an arrow pointing left and down.
U+29AF
The symbol ⦯ is used in mathematical and technical diagrams to specify a measured angle direction. It’s especially relevant when you want an angle marker that visually points left and down. This page helps you copy the symbol and understand where it’s typically used.
Measured Angle With Open Arm Ending In Arrow Pointing Left And Down Symbol Meaning
⦯ is the Unicode “MEASURED ANGLE WITH OPEN ARM ENDING IN ARROW POINTING LEFT AND DOWN” (U+29AF). It’s an angle-notation mark combining a measured-angle concept with a stylized arrow ending. In practice, it helps communicate both that an angle is being measured and the visual orientation of the marker—specifically pointing left and down. You may encounter it in typeset math, diagramming, geometry explanations, and documentation where precise graphical notation matters. When matching notation across a document, copy the symbol directly rather than approximating it with unrelated angle or arrow characters.
Common uses
- •Math typesetting: labeling a measured angle in geometry or trigonometry work
- •Technical diagrams: indicating an angle measurement with a directional marker
- •Educational materials: annotating steps in angle construction or reasoning
- •Scientific documentation: matching standardized angle glyph conventions
- •UI/UX diagram design: representing a precise angle measurement marker in diagrams

FAQ
What does ⦯ represent?
⦯ represents a measured angle with an open arm ending in an arrow pointing left and down (Unicode U+29AF).
Where is ⦯ commonly used?
It’s mainly used in mathematical typesetting and technical/educational diagrams where precise angle notation is needed.
How do I copy ⦯ into my document?
Copy the character directly from this page (⦯). If you need code, you can use ⦯ or \\u{29AF}.
Why use ⦯ instead of a normal angle symbol?
Because ⦯ includes a specific measured-angle and directional arrow ending, which conveys orientation that a plain angle symbol often can’t.
