OK, for a thousand karma, How can the following be true, what is the solution?

In neither arrangement is the resulting shape a triangle. The shape is nearly a triangle, but the 'hypotenuse' is not a straight line, so it is actually a quadrilateral. The angle at the bottom left of each coloured triangle, theta can be worked out by taking the inverse tan of the (height of the triangle / base).

The small triangle has a base length of five and a height of two => theta = inv tan (0.4) = 21.8deg.The larger triangle has a base of eight and a height of three => theta = inv tan (0.375) = 20.6deg

So, when the little triangle is top right of the large 'triangle', its 'hypotenuse' is concave. When the big triangle is on top, the 'hypotenuse' is actually convex. The difference in the shape of the top surface causes a difference in the area of the 'triangle', allowing exactly one square to be left over.

that is correct, its an illusion based on curved lines. Actually these effects were used by ancient greek builders like the Parthenon

pay me nigga , i was right first

you were wrong first, the second triangle is shorter not longer. You were on the right track but going east not west. Go west young man, go west

"do you know what nemesis means?" for a 1000k
in Greek mythology, Nemesis is the goddess of divine justice and vengeance.
# A source of harm or ruin: Uncritical trust is my nemesis.
# Retributive justice in its execution or outcome: To follow the proposed course of action is to invite nemesis.
# An opponent that cannot be beaten or overcome.
# One that inflicts retribution or vengeance.
