Three Dimensional Angle Symbol
⟀ (U+27C0) is the three dimensional angle symbol used to express angles in 3D contexts.
U+27C0
The symbol ⟀ is named “THREE DIMENSIONAL ANGLE” (Unicode U+27C0). It’s commonly used when a diagram or notation refers to an angle in three dimensions. This page helps you copy the character and use it correctly in text and code.
Three Dimensional Angle Symbol Meaning
⟀ (Unicode U+27C0), called the “three dimensional angle,” represents an angle measured or described in a 3D setting. Unlike simpler angle symbols used for 2D geometry, this character is intended for notations where direction and orientation in space matter, such as technical illustrations, geometry/engineering diagrams, and typeset mathematical expressions. In everyday writing, you’ll mostly see it in documents related to math, CAD, physics, or educational materials. If your font supports it, it can be used directly in plain text, but code-friendly copies and escape sequences are available for HTML/CSS/JavaScript workflows.
Common uses
- •Labeling 3D angle measures in engineering notes or diagrams
- •Using as a symbol in math/physics teaching materials for spatial geometry
- •Marking “three-dimensional angle” in technical reports and documentation
- •Formatting technical text in design systems and UI help content
- •Including the symbol in STEM presentations and slide annotations
Examples
⟀ Three Dimensional Angle Symbol
- ⟀The beam makes a ⟀ angle with the reference plane.
- ⟀In 3D, we denote the opening using ⟀.
- ⟀For the model, the target angle is shown by ⟀.
- ⟀Rotate the segment until the ⟀ reading matches the spec.
- ⟀The diagram uses ⟀ to indicate the three-dimensional angle.
