U+2AC9 "⫉" Subset of Above Almost Equal To Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
⫉
U+2AC9 "⫉" Subset of Above Almost Equal To is a mathematical symbol used in set theory and logic to denote that one set is a subset of another set while also indicating an approximate or nearly equal relationship between the two, often implying that they are not exactly equal but almost so. This character combines the idea of a subset relation with the nuance of closeness in value or size, making it useful for nuanced mathematical expressions where a strict subset or equality does not apply. Its design typically features a subset-like shape above a wavy equal sign, visually merging both concepts into a single typographic unit.
