Mathematic illusion

Day 1,623, 10:32 • Published in South Korea

• by ManuR

The picture below illustrates two geometrical forms, made at their turn of other geometrical forms with the same size and shape. But it is so, how could the second shape’s surface be larger than the first? Is it someone good at math who can help us solve this illusion?

Recommendation: image contains a link to a song. Together with images music is a universal language. Enjoy it.

Enjoy the life and the game.

8/3≠3/1≠5/2

slope is different.

So, right seems triangle is really 'tetragon'.

The diagonal in the 5x13 rectangle is not perfectly straight. It is distorted slightly and still looks straight but it actually isn't

Formele geometrice galbene din a doua poza par a fi trapezuri neregulate nu triunghiuri

ManuR Day 1,623, 13:44

alupoigus ai dreptat in parte... nu-s triungiuri dat nici trapeze, ci niste patrulatere iar ariile figurilor din imaginea 2 adunate dau cu 1 mai mult decat suma ariilor din prima imagine
John Gormley si Kyeory au remarcat primii acest lucru

All these kind of pictures use a simple trick.
Connect two lines which have different angle, then draw it like a straight continuous line.

It's very simple trick like ManuR, e-South Korean citizen, has SouthKorea flag on profile and fight against eSouthKorea : )

@ManuR / Yes you fight for eSouthKorea these days but before "True Patriot Medal" I once saw you fighting against eSouthKorea for eROC. I don't care if it was just one time accident or not. I don't blame you don't worry. It's just a game. I'm cool. lol.
Anyway did u read my last comment on your newspaper? I want to see real pictures of Romania and also female singers. Can you do me a favor? Thanks
Hope you have a wonderful day

@ManuR//

True patriot of "True patriot medal" : )
By the way, I hope that number keep increasing even if it requires millions of damage to get 1 medal at later stage.

@KOR_Sohn
Do you remember the days when there were 2 or 3 Korean MU fighting against eSK, to erase the country out of the map?

ManuR Day 1,624, 04:14

@Jinoism
I have only 10 BH medals, but 3 are for eSouthKorea.
If you start a RW I'll be glad to make a new TP medal.

My Korean brothers... You are fighting for bulgaria but they are thinking only themselves. South Korea under occuption. Bulgars are liar and egoist.
