Meaning & usage
Upper right triangle (◥) adds a geometric marker to text.
Use it as a bullet, legend marker or decorative accent; contrast and size affect whether its outline remains legible.
The upper right triangle is a distinct decorative form. U+25E5 keeps this variant separate from similarly shaped characters, so compare neighboring forms before choosing it for a repeating pattern.
upper right triangle occupies one Unicode code point. A similar-looking letter, punctuation mark or emoji is not necessarily interchangeable with ◥ in search, filenames or text processing.
