You'll get something like this

Alternatively you can enable compose keys to create these symbols with ease without remembering these annoying keyboard number-letter combinations.
Open GEdit and insert the following:
include "/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose"
<Multi_key> <t> <r> <i> : "▲" U25B2 # Triangle
Save this as .XCompose (case sensitive) in your home directory.
Open your keyboard settings (system settings → keyboard settings) and go to the shortcuts tab. Under the "typing" section you'll find a "Compose Key" setting. Set this to your compose key (I advice right alt)
Log out and log back in.
For the non-breaking space press Compose Key → space → space.
For the triangle char press Compose Key → t → r → i
If it isn't working add
export GTK_IM_MODULE="xim"
to the end of ~/.profile.
If xim isn't working for you you'll have have to install uim (sudo apt-get install uim
) and replace the xim in ~/.profile with uim.
Congratulations you are now triforcing like a pro.
