Its mysterious, nd real too. The triangle is attached, kindly visit by clicking on the miniatura.

ah fibonnaci!

OpenStudy (shadowfiend):

I believe you'll find the two smaller triangles don't have the same slope for their hypotenuse, so, although subtle, neither overall shape is a real triangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A the lovely dissapearing square. The fact is that the second triangle is actually a quadrilateral. This is because the dark green and red triangles are not similar at all and thus will not form a straight line. However your eye is not a precise instrument and fools you into thinking it is straight because it it so close.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The composite figures are same for both of the triangles bt the overall area is not same visually. What could be the logic here?

OpenStudy (shadowfiend):

Again, the shapes are not actually triangles. It is subtle, but the sub-triangles are not of the same slope, meaning that there is not a single continuous line from bottom left to top right. This is instead a quadrilateral that looks like a triangle to the eye.
