Guest Billov Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 You know what pisses me off.... This triangle. I don't think its even an illusion.... it just... breaks... reality...... FUCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUCK OK now i'm seriously pissed... I just drew out a grid, cut out those triangles and theres still a gap. FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU >:0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Coalbucket PI Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 both of these have bothered me for ages. I know with the 12 /13 one that its in the second column from the left, in one its 2 people and another its 3. Im too drunk to solve this now but I feel like Im close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GORDO Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 just read this and still dont understand http://www.defectiveyeti.com/archives/001258.html tl;dr "Basically, the puzzle works by cutting each person in two, taking a small slice of them (1/12 of their height) and passes it over to the right until after 12 people you end up with a whole extra person. Then the creator mixed up the order of the people so that you couldn't see what he did." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GORDO Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 the trianlge one, if i remember correctly, you can't rearrange piece of triangles like that. the smaller trangle pieces have different slopes. if you tried you would end up with a figure that is not a triangle. (or something like that) edit: indeed look in the first picture where the red triangle reaches height of 2 squares... it doesn't. so it's not the same triangle at all.

murve33 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 The original shape isn't a triangle though. The teal hypotenuse and the red hypotenuse are different. (8/3 and 5/2) or (16/6 and 15/6). I still don't see how rearranging pieces of it would change anything though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root5 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 You know what pisses me off.... This triangle. I don't think its even an illusion.... it just... breaks... reality...... FUCK The green triangle has a steeper slope than the red triangle. So in the top picture, the slope is slightly concave. In the second picture the slope is slightly convex. In both the net area is exactly 32 boxes. It's a really cool illusion because the slope of the next triangle really looks bent. But 2/5 is slightly steeper than 3/8.

murve33 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I just think it's odd that the concave/convex difference changes the triangle a whole square unit. It does make enough sense for me to be satisfied though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scrambled Ears Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 i went to that website but i still always see 12... the triangle one is cool but the solution is meh i remember solving that in 11th grade math and being very pissed that the answer was the slope...

The height is 3 blocks. The slopes aren't different. my point is that in the second triangle the figure reaches a height of exactly 2 blocks and in the first one it doesn't, so it's not the same figure. just an easy way to spot the difference.

gaarg Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 12 0r 13 ? at first I thought it was impossible but when you see the details it's just... Good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
