adamk · Answer

That's a variable, "l," for length.

Oh, I know. But, it's usually for length.

A script L is used in Geometry for slant height.

bibby · Answer

I"ve seen it in |dw:1424223058694:dw|

bibby · Answer

it's just a cursive/script L

adamk · Answer

Yeah, that means length. It's in the equation for volume.

anonymous · Answer

That is what the attatchment is. It wasn't working at first.

anonymous · Answer

Okay so it's just an L then?

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

this symbol I'm guessing: $\Large \ell$

I agree with what everyone else is saying. I agree it's just a fancy way of saying lowercase L. In fact it's a better way since lowercase L looks like a one or an uppercase i.

anonymous · Answer

I actually think L is wrong. I'm typing in what I think the answer is and l is wrong.

anonymous · Answer

is there a way I can copy and paste that symbol from somewhere>

bibby · Answer

just use a lower case l
