Unicode Version 17.0
⧤
U+29E4 "⧤" Equals Sign and Slanted Parallel with Tilde Above is a mathematical symbol that combines an equals sign with a slanted parallel line, topped by a tilde, and is used to denote a specific relational or equivalence concept, often in advanced algebra or geometry, where it may represent a relation of approximate equality combined with parallelism or a specialized congruence. Its design integrates three distinct typographic elements to convey a nuanced mathematical meaning, typically appearing in technical documents or formal notation where precise distinctions between equality, parallelism, and approximation are required.
