larger than or equal to

Larger Than or Equal To

⪭ is the math symbol for “at least”: the value before it may equal the value after it or be larger. “geq” is shorthand for that greater-or-equal relation. Its equal sign can also appear slanted when requested.

What ⪭ means

A smaller left-hand value fails the comparison.

In x ⪭ 5, x may equal 5 or be greater.

Why is there a slanted-equal form?

Unicode permits two shapes for ⪭ when it stands alone.

The sequence ⪭︀ adds invisible U+FE00 after ⪭ to request the slanted-equal shape.

Don't confuse it with

≥

Greater-Than Or Equal To

The regular sign ≥ expresses the same comparison. ⪭ is a separate character with an optional slanted-equal form.

Questions people ask

Why does ⪭ show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
