Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ӻ has the Unicode code point U+04FA. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+04FA to binary:
00000100 11111010. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:

Description
The Unicode character U+04FA, known as CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER GHE WITH STROKE AND HOOK, is a crucial element in digital text representation of the Cyrillic script, which is predominantly used for writing Russian and other East Slavic languages. This specific letter combines three unique features: a guttural 'G' sound, a vertical stroke through the middle, and a hook on the right side. The vertical stroke and hook distinguish this character from other Cyrillic letters, making it easily identifiable. In typography, the U+04FA character is often used in digital text for its cultural significance, as it plays an important role in various Russian names, place names, and historical terms. The Cyrillic script itself has a long history dating back to the 9th century when it was first created by Saints Cyril and Methodius. Today, this character continues to serve a vital function in digital text, enabling accurate representation of the rich cultural heritage and linguistic nuances of the East Slavic languages.
