How Origami Changed the World

Origami, originating from Japan, is not only an art form but also a mathematical tool. While Euclid laid the foundations of geometry, he couldn't solve certain problems like angle trisection and cube doubling. In 1936, Margarita P Belloc used origami to find solutions to these problems, leading to new mathematical axioms. Origami's mathematical applications extend to modern engineering, influencing technologies like airbags and robotics.
