yellowman Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Did you guys/girls see this problem before? I saw it on the net but don't remember where: I am thinking about it but I can't understand why there is one complete centimeter square missing after changing the position of those 4 shapes (red, yellow, blue and green) keeping there exact size and shapes unchanged ? From where this gap came? entertaining Quote My GalleryMy YouTube Channel "PDN Tutorials" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 The blue and the yellow pieces are not identical, the yellow one is slightly larger, that's why. It's hard to explain as I don't know the terms in English. :?

pophiri Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Here is how it is done (hidden if you want to figure it out for yourself) Hidden Content: The angles on the verticies of the two triangles are different (red triangle has a gradient of 2.67:1, green triangle has a gradient of 2.5:1). This causes a inward bow in version 1 and an outward bow in version 2. The size of the difference is exactly one square. Neat trick, I've not seen it before.
