The figure below, composed of four regular pentagons with a side length of $1$, was glued in space as follows. First, it was folded along the broken sections, by combining the bold sections, and then formed in such a way that colored sections formed a square. Find the length of the segment $AB$ created in this way.

A square sheet of paper $ABCD$ is folded straight in such a way that point $B$ hits to the midpoint of side $CD$. In what ratio does the fold line divide side $BC$?
A sheet of rectangular $ABCD$ paper, of area $1$, is folded along its diagonal $AC$ and then unfolded, then it is bent so that vertex $A$ coincides with vertex $C$ and then unfolded, leaving the crease $MN$, as shown below.
a) Show that the quadrilateral $AMCN$ is a rhombus.
b) If the diagonal $AC$ is twice the width $AD$, what is the area of the rhombus $AMCN$?

A square sheet of paper $ABCD$ is folded straight in such a way that point $B$ hits to the midpoint of side $CD$. In what ratio does the fold line divide side $BC$?
Miguel has a square piece of paper $ABCD$ that he folded along a line $EF$, $E$ on $AB$, and $F$ on $CD$. This fold sent $A$ to point $A'$ on $BC$, distinct from $B$ and $C$. Also, it brought $D$ to point $D'$. $G$ is the intersection of $A'D'$ and $DC$. Prove that the inradius of $GCA'$ is equal to the sum of the inradius of $D'GF$ and $A'BE$.
A semicircular paper is folded along a chord such that the folded circular arc is tangent to the diameter of the semicircle. The radius of the semicircle is $4$ units and the point of tangency divides the diameter in the ratio $7 :1$. If the length of the crease (the dotted line segment in the figure) is $\ell$ then determine $ \ell^2$.
