Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ◞ has the Unicode code point U+25DE. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+25DE to binary:
00100101 11011110. 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:
11100010 10010111 10011110

Description
U+25DE is a Unicode character known as the Lower Right Quadrant Circular Arc. It is part of the Miscellaneous Symbols block (U+2600 to U+26FF) in the Unicode standard, which includes a variety of symbols and glyphs used for specific purposes across different languages and digital platforms. The character is not associated with any cultural or linguistic context; instead, it serves a technical function within digital text. In its typical usage, U+25DE is employed to create geometric diagrams, charts, or other visual representations where an arc is needed in the lower right quadrant. For instance, it may be used in engineering documents, software applications, or educational materials that involve geometry, trigonometry, or other mathematical concepts requiring visual aids for better understanding. Overall, U+25DE contributes to the versatility and accuracy of digital text by providing a specific glyph for depicting an arc in the lower right quadrant.
