Fold the paper and you’ve made a mirror. The crease is a line of reflection — that’s the whole trick.
🔮 Open the folding console →One idea folds all of origami into maths
- ↔️ Fold across a line. A dot 3 units left of the crease lands 3 units to the right. Left/right, top/bottom, or the diagonal — the crease is always the mirror.
- 📐 Fold an angle in half. Match one edge onto the other and the crease bisects the angle exactly — halfway between 20° and 80° is 50°, no protractor needed.
- 🔷 Count the symmetry. A square lands on itself along 4 folds, a triangle 3, a hexagon 6 — a regular shape has as many symmetry folds as it has sides.
Meet the crew — the folds that make a mirror
- Mira is the crease itself — a line of reflection that flips one half of the paper onto the other.
- Valley and Mountain are the two ways to fold, but both are the same mirror seen from opposite sides.
- Axis (mentor) counts a shape’s symmetry folds and reminds the crew a regular n-gon always has exactly n.
- Bisect matches one edge onto another to split an angle exactly in half — geometry a ruler can only approximate.
