Reversed Angle Symbol
⦣ is the reversed angle (Unicode U+29A3), used in math notation and angled-symbol design.
U+29A3
⦣ is a math symbol often referred to as the reversed angle. It’s encoded in Unicode as U+29A3 and can be inserted in text, documents, and code. Use it when you need an angled marker that visually points in the opposite direction of a standard angle.
Reversed Angle Symbol Meaning
The symbol ⦣ is named “REVERSED ANGLE” and belongs to the Math category. Visually, it’s an angle-like mark drawn in reverse orientation, making it useful when you want an emphasis or relation that corresponds to a “flipped” angle compared with a typical angle glyph. In practice, it appears in mathematical expressions, formal text, and typography where angled punctuation or relation symbols help structure meaning—such as indicating directionality, comparisons, or specialized notations created by a particular document or style guide.
Common uses
- •Marking a reversed or opposite direction in a custom math or logic notation
- •Serving as an angle-like decorative delimiter in technical writing
- •Formatting structured text or bullet annotations where a small geometric cue is needed
- •Enhancing typography in posters, slides, and design mockups with math-style symbols
- •Writing or documenting equations in contexts that require Unicode-accurate symbols
