Symbol | Definition | Example |
\(\triangle\) | triangle | \(\triangle ABC \) |
\(\angle\) | angle | \(\angle ABC = 60^\circ\) |
\(\measuredangle\) | measured angle | \(\angle ABC \;\measuredangle \;60^\circ\) |
\(\sphericalangle\) | spherical angle | \(\angle ABC \;\sphericalangle\; 60^\circ\) |
\(c\) | radian | \(360^\circ=2\pi^c\) |
