tdth Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 Please look at image and see how strange it is
Queso Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 there was recently a post about this same thing...if i remember correctly it has to do with the thickness of the black borders around the shapes, and a couple other things i don't remember. but that still is pretty strange. sorry i couldn't be of more help, i'm more of a watcher.

dagaz Posted February 19, 2005 Report Posted February 19, 2005 Its actually caused by an optical illusion - the red and green triangles appear to have the same slope but they don't, the green triangle has a steeper slope. If you notice where the green triangle finishes - right in the corner of the square, and then keep traveling vertically up that same line you'll see that the red triangle is slightly below the corner. Sorry, posted this before I saw that it had already been answered in the topic posted to above.
