Description

The Unicode character U+225A, designated as "EQUIANGULAR TO", is a mathematical symbol primarily utilized in digital text to represent the concept of equiangularity between two lines or segments. It is often employed within mathematical equations, diagrams, and technical documents to convey the notion that two lines are equiangular, meaning they share the same angle with respect to a common reference line. The symbol plays an essential role in various fields such as geometry, engineering, architecture, and computer graphics where precise representation of angles and orientations is crucial. While it may not have significant cultural or linguistic significance, U+225A serves as a vital tool for accurate communication of specific mathematical relationships within digital text.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 8794 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character has the Unicode code point U+225A. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0800 to 0xffff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format: 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
    Where the x are the payload bits.

    UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range
    Codepoint RangeBytesBit patternPayload length
    U+0000 - U+007F10xxxxxxx7 bits
    U+0080 - U+07FF2110xxxxx 10xxxxxx11 bits
    U+0800 - U+FFFF31110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx16 bits
    U+10000 - U+10FFFF411110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx21 bits
  2. Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:

    Convert the hexadecimal code point U+225A to binary: 00100010 01011010. Those are the payload bits.

  3. Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:

    Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
    11100010 10001001 10011010
