In folding an irregularly shaped tent, I managed to get the shape of a triangle, which was evenly thick. Unfortunately, the best way to fold a tent is in a rectangle that is evenly thick. How can I fold a triangle into a rectangle without making some parts of it thicker than others?

I think Nikki's explanation only works with a isosceles obtuse triangle because a scalene would be asymmetrical and the right triangles would be uneven when you fold then inot a rectangle.
