A square sheet is folded diagonally in half to form a right-angled isosceles triangle. It is then folded in half again along its altitude. If two holes are punched through the middle of the folded triangle, how many total holes will appear when the paper is unfolded?

(A) 8
(B) 4
(C) 16
(D) 2
Answer Key:

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation
Each diagonal fold doubles the number of layers: 1 fold gives 2 layers, 2 folds give 4 layers. Two holes punched through 4 layers produce 2 * 4 = 8 holes.
