How to Write the Succeeds Symbol (≻) in LaTeX

In LaTeX, you can write the succeeds symbol (≻) using the \succ command.

The following examples show how to write the succeeds symbol in LaTeX.

How to Write the Succeeds Symbol in Text

We can use the \succ command to write the succeeds symbol in LaTeX document for text.

Suppose we want to write the succeeds symbol in the text.

We can use the following LaTeX code to do so:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}

This is an example of using the succeeds symbol \( a \succ b \) in a sentence.

\end{document}

Output: 👇️

This is an example of using the succeeds symbol a ≻ b in a sentence.

In this example, we use the \succ command to display the succeeds symbol in the text.

How to Write the Succeeds Symbol in Mathematical Expressions

For mathematical expressions, we can use the \succ command to ensure proper formatting.

Suppose we would like to write mathematical expressions that contain the succeeds symbol.

We can use the following LaTeX code to do so:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}

An inline mathematical expression: \( a \succ b \).

A displayed mathematical expression:
\[
a \succ b
\]

\end{document}

Output: 👇️

In this example, we use the \succ command to denote the succeeds symbol in both inline and displayed mathematical expressions.

Conclusion

We can use the \succ command for both text and mathematical expressions. This ensures that the succeeds symbol is properly formatted and displayed in your LaTeX document.
