what u see in that picture is not triangles. the first figure is a bounded non-convex quadrangle, and the sloping "line" is not the hypotenuse. in fact, the hypotenuse doesn't exist at all; u can easily prove (by using any trigonometric function) that there's a "hidden" angle in the middle of the pseudo-hypotenuse. that fourth angle is very close to a flat one and therefore looks like a line. now, in the second picture u have different angles again, which gives u a different area. |
Is it just me, or could Acid Junkie be just about the smartest man on the planet? LOL
