A lengthwise fold is when a material or fabric is folded from one end to the other, along its longest side. This creates a crease or fold parallel to the longest edges of the material. Lengthwise folds are commonly used in sewing and crafting to create neat and uniform folds in the material.
If rocks are folded, the folding is younger that the youngest rock affected. If they are folded into a syncline (a U-shaped fold) the youngest rocks are in the core of he fold. The opposite is true for an anticline (a big dome-shaped fold).
The two sides of a fold are called the limbs. The limb above the fold is referred to as the anticline limb, while the limb below the fold is known as the syncline limb.
An asymmetrical fold occurs when a material is folded in a way that creates two unequally sized sections. This type of fold is commonly used in design and fashion to add visual interest or create unique patterns.
The compass direction of a fold or a rock layer exposed at the surface along a fold is referred to as the trend of the fold. This trend helps geologists determine the orientation and direction of the folding of rock layers in the Earth's crust.
An anticline is a convex fold in a rock structure.
To fold an A4 sheet into tenths, first, fold the paper in half lengthwise to create a crease, then unfold it. Next, fold the paper in half again lengthwise to create a new crease, and then unfold it again. This will give you four equal sections. Finally, take the edges and fold them to meet the creases, dividing the page into ten equal sections.
A crosswise fold is sometimes used to change the direction of the fabric's stretch and drape, providing a different effect in the final garment. It can also be used to align patterns or to work with the fabric's design or print in a specific way.
To fold something lengthwise means to fold it along its longer side, creating a crease that runs parallel to the length of the item. This type of folding typically results in a thinner, elongated shape, often used for items like fabric, paper, or certain types of food. It allows for a more compact arrangement while maintaining the original dimensions of the item in the shorter direction.
To fold the Dipset gang flag, first lay it flat on a clean surface with the design facing up. Fold the flag in half lengthwise, aligning the edges, then fold it in half again to create a smaller rectangle. Finally, fold it into thirds or roll it up, ensuring the emblem remains visible if desired. Store it neatly to maintain its shape and design.
To fold a paper quarterly, start by placing the paper flat on a surface. Fold it in half lengthwise so that the two shorter edges meet, then crease the fold well. Next, take the resulting half and fold it in half again, this time bringing the two shorter edges together once more. Crease the new fold firmly, and you'll have folded the paper into four equal sections.
To fold a piece of paper into 18 sections, start by folding it in half lengthwise, then unfold it. Next, fold it in half widthwise, and then unfold again. You can then make additional folds, dividing each section further: fold each half into thirds, resulting in 18 sections overall. Make sure to press down firmly on each fold for clear creases.
Hold the rag lengthwise. Fold it in half (the long sides toward each other) and over the end of your hair. It's still lengthwise so you have two long ends. Now, roll your hair up close to your head and tie the ends.
lengthwise, lengthways
"Fold in half crosswise" means to take an object, such as a piece of paper or fabric, and fold it so that the two shorter edges meet, creating a crease in the center. This action typically results in the item being halved along its width rather than its length. The term "crosswise" emphasizes the direction of the fold across the width rather than lengthwise.
To fold a paper into twelfths, first fold the paper in half lengthwise to create two equal sections. Next, fold each half into thirds by bringing the outer edges towards the center crease, effectively creating six equal sections. Finally, fold the paper in half again across the shorter side, which will give you twelve equal segments. Make sure to press down firmly on each fold for clear divisions.
To fold the South Korean flag (Taegeukgi), first lay it flat with the Taegeuk (the red and blue circle) facing up. Fold the flag in half lengthwise so the top edge meets the bottom edge. Then, fold it in half again widthwise, ensuring the Taegeuk remains visible. Finally, fold the flag into a triangle, starting from one end, tucking the corners neatly until you reach the end.
To make an envelope, start with a rectangular piece of paper. Fold the paper in half lengthwise, then unfold it to create a crease. Fold the two shorter sides toward the center crease, and then fold up the bottom section to create the envelope's pocket. Finally, seal the sides with glue or tape, and you have your envelope ready to use.
