What happens here

Following the initial straight cuts, the next action is to make a 45-degree angle cut on each side of the central fold line where the bend is desired. These diagonal cuts connect the ends of the previous straight cuts to the corner point, creating a triangular section of material. This triangular section will be removed or folded away, allowing for a clean, tight 45-degree corner bend once the main material is folded.

Goal: Remove material for a clean 45-degree bend.

What they say

Hide

not your gutters, but your roofing shingles. The drip edge that works on this galvanized steel. Cut the second one. The next cut is a 45-degree cut. Both sides. Now what do you do? Tuck it in. And you got a 45 bracket with a nice decently clean corner bend.
