Turned Angle Symbol
⦢ Turned Angle is a math symbol used to represent a specific angled or rotated relation in notation.
U+29A2
⦢ is the Unicode “TURNED ANGLE” symbol (U+29A2). It’s commonly used in mathematical or technical text where an angle needs to be indicated in a turned or oriented way. Use the code points below to copy it reliably across platforms.
Turned Angle Symbol Meaning
The symbol ⦢ is named “TURNED ANGLE” in Unicode (U+29A2). It appears in mathematical notation to indicate an angle with a particular orientation or “turned” depiction, which can be useful when authors need to distinguish it from other angle and geometric symbols. Because it’s a dedicated Unicode character, it’s preferable to using approximations when you want consistent typography. In documents, it can help clarify diagrams, geometric statements, or formal text where the direction or style of an angle matters.
Common uses
- •Writing geometry notes that reference a specifically oriented or “turned” angle
- •Typesetting mathematical expressions in plain text editors that support Unicode
- •Labeling diagram callouts in technical writing or documentation
- •Creating consistent math symbols for presentations and slide captions
- •Drafting equations or proofs where the angle symbol style must be unambiguous
