Variant of \leq and \geq

Post by Elliot123 »

Hello,

Can anyone tell me how to get the variants of \leg and \geq where the bottom line is parallel with the < or > symbol, rather parallel with the horizontal?

I can't seem to find answers anywhere.

With amssymb package loaded, they're \leqslant and \geqslant, respectively.

You might want to familiarize yourself with the Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List for finding things like this in the future, or even use DeTeXify to draw the symbols you want and get the corresponding codes.

I know it was there somewhere - thankyou.

I have never seen Detexify before, it identified it with no problem.
