This is likely an issue with either your terminal or your 'guifont'
setting.

If you're using (non-g)vim in a terminal, then its ability to render
characters is limited by the terminal's awareness of extended
glyphs. E.g., you might try running "uxterm" (the
Unicode-aware xterm) instead of "xterm".

Also, it may be that the terminal or gvim knows how to render it, but
that you're using a font in that environment that doesn't support the
given glyph. If you're using gvim, enter the character and then try
changing your 'guifont' setting

:set guifont=*

and see if some other font properly renders the triangle. For your
terminal, you'd have to check its settings to determine which font
it's using and try others to see if they support the glyph.
