Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⦩ has the Unicode code point U+29A9. 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+29A9 to binary:
00101001 10101001. 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 10100110 10101001

Description
The Unicode character U+29A9, known as the "MEASURED ANGLE WITH OPEN ARM ENDING IN ARROW POINTING UP AND LEFT," is a mathematical symbol primarily used in digital text to represent a specific type of angle measurement. This character is part of the Geometric Shapes block within the Unicode Standard. In its typical usage, U+29A9 is employed in geometry and trigonometry to illustrate an angle that has been measured or is being measured, with one of its arms extending in the form of an arrow pointing upwards and to the left. In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical context, there isn't a specific culture or language that uniquely associates with this symbol. Its usage transcends geographic boundaries as it is universally understood among mathematicians, engineers, architects, and other professionals who work in fields that require precise measurements and geometric calculations. The character is widely used across digital platforms, including word processors, mathematical software, and online forums where technical information is shared. In summary, U+29A9 serves as a vital tool for expressing the concept of a measured angle in various mathematical disciplines and provides a clear visual representation of this notion within the context of digital text.
