History & usage: The symbol at code point U+2A94 is named GREATER-THAN ABOVE SLANTED EQUAL ABOVE LESS-THAN ABOVE SLANTED EQUAL. It belongs to the Supplemental Mathematical Operators block. In usage, this symbol is a combined relation. It appears in formulas to show a chain of comparisons with slanted lines between the signs. It can indicate two comparisons in one relation or a specific ordering in a sequence. The design uses two parts: greater-than and less-than with equal signs above and below. This helps convey more information in a compact form. In practice, it shows a tie across two comparisons and a shift in value direction. Users see it in math fonts and interface tools where compact notation matters. Common math symbols indicate operations or comparisons in formulas and user interfaces. This symbol supports precise reasoning in math, logic, and education. It is most helpful when space is limited or when a single symbol should capture a complex relation. Overall, it blends standard inequality ideas into a single, readable sign for advanced math tasks.
