Question 1

A paper is folded horizontally, then diagonally from top-left to bottom-right. A hole is punched at the center of the final triangular shape. What is the unfolded pattern?

Advanced Multi-Directional Fold Solution:

Step 1 - Complex Fold Analysis:
- Sequence: horizontally, then diagonally from top-left to bottom-right
- Creates: 4 layers but with mixed symmetry types
- Symmetry axes: one horizontal, one diagonal

Step 2 - Layer Count Calculation:
