I think that this is indeed the formula in GP's question. And indeed sometimes math notation is obtuse like that. It looks like 2 terms, but the triangle goes together with the t as a single term. At other times it might be called "dt" and despite looking like a multiplication of 2 variables (d and t, or triangle and t in this case) it's just a single variable with a named made of 2 characters.

The important thing here is that "For a pulse of width Dt" is the definition of this variable, but this can be easily missed if you're not used to this naming convention.
