[ARCHIVED] Math Symbols in Quiz

[rachel_madrid]

When using the numerical question feature on a Canvas quiz, is there a way for students to insert math symbols into their answers? For example, I would like a student to be able to input 33 "degrees" for an angle measure using the degree symbol.

Hi  @rachel_madrid  Thank You for your question and apologies for the delayed reply.

The degree symbol can be found via the 'Insert Maths Equation' in the rich content editor, then 'Misc'. 

Here are snips of what you need to look for-
