Question: how do you type an upside down v?
Answer: Probably you're referring to the caret symbol (^), which you can insert easily by pressing shift and 6 at the same time. if you want an actual upside down V, then follow the instructions from Craig Prall. You can also go to Flip Text, Type Upside Down, or Backwards Text and flip any text, including V (Λ), upside down.
