Ooh. That's a real bitch. The gradient has gotta be slightly different or something, coz a similar 8x2 rectangle can't fit into the first triangle if you look at the picture closely.

u can use the quares (and your ability to count) to see that the figures are the same....and that there is the same slope! I don't get it!

wait a minute...the slope IS in fact different....
5:2 is not the same relative as 8:3
when you translate 5:2 it becomes 7.5:3
AHAAA hope I haven't spoiled anyways fun lol

Well IT IS about slopes... uhm okey Pjotr G u had the answer... more or less...
**DONT READ THIS IF U STILL WANNA FIND OUT BY YOUR OWN**
The gradient of the combined figure is 5/13 = 0.3846
So the real height of the red triangle would be 8*0.3846 = 3.07
And the real height of the greenish¿? triangle is 5*0.3846= 1.92
So if u check well u find out that the "rectangles" in the two pictures are of different height...
But doing it graphically would be difficult cos its a distance so small u would find out (the borders would make it less obvious)...
It was a good challenge for me.. hope it u like it...
Ps: Cosmo, what is "PS"???
If anyone wants to know mail me or post it here.. i ll answer when i get back from the carl cox rave... uhhh how is carl cox dj´ing this days??

shite. not 61 views.
the slope is different.
i don't really understand the question, though. so what if the pieces can be arranged to form an imperfect triangle? how is that impossible?
i don't really know what i am answering..
