  3. Box-drawing characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box-drawing_characters

    Box-drawing characters, also known as line-drawing characters, are a form of semigraphics widely used in text user interfaces to draw various geometric frames and boxes. These characters are characterized by being designed to be connected horizontally and/or vertically with adjacent characters, which requires proper alignment.

  5. Paper fortune teller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_fortune_teller

    The corners of a sheet of paper are folded up to meet the opposite sides and (if the paper is not already square) the top is cut off, making a square sheet with diagonal creases. [1] The four corners of the square are folded into the center, forming a shape known in origami terminology as a blintz base or cushion fold. [2]

    Figure 3 shows the first fold, and figure 4 the result of the first nine folds, which form a spiral. Figures 5-6 show the final folding of the spiral to make a hexagon; in 5, two red faces have been hidden by a valley fold, and in 6, two red faces on the bottom side have been hidden by a mountain fold.

  8. Hendecagon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hendecagon

    Draw the radius A B, bisect it in C—with an opening of the compasses equal to half the radius, upon A and C as centres describe the arcs C D I and A D—with the distance I D upon I describe the arc D O and draw the line C O, which will be the extent of one side of a hendecagon sufficiently exact for practice. On a unit circle:

  9. Mathematics of paper folding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_paper_folding

    The fold-and-cut problem asks what shapes can be obtained by folding a piece of paper flat, and making a single straight complete cut. The solution, known as the fold-and-cut theorem, states that any shape with straight sides can be obtained. A practical problem is how to fold a map so that it may be manipulated with minimal effort or movements.
