Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⦨ has the Unicode code point U+29A8. 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+29A8 to binary:
00101001 10101000. 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+29A8, known as "MEASURED ANGLE WITH OPEN ARM ENDING IN ARROW POINTING UP AND RIGHT," is a specialized typographical symbol primarily used in mathematical and technical documents to denote a specific angle measurement. Its typical usage involves representing an angle where the open arm of the measured angle ends with an arrow pointing up and to the right. This symbol can be found within mathematical equations, trigonometry, and geometry-related text. It is essential for clear communication in these disciplines as it helps eliminate ambiguity while conveying accurate information about angles and their orientations. The character is part of a broader set of Unicode symbols designed to facilitate precise representation and understanding of complex concepts within digital text.
