    sir if fold axis and axial plane are parallel initially then we convert it to vertical fold i.e vertical fold axis , hence perpendicular to axial plane. so it is vertical fold

    The curved line represents the axial plane. At point A, pitch of fold axis w.r.t. axial plane is O. As we move towards B from A, the pitch increases and at the point B, pitch of the fold axis w.r.t. axial plane is 90°.
    So, the answer is Reclined fold.
