Sandor's Parallelogram
Optical-Illusion
An optical illusion is a visually perceived image that is deceptive or misleading.Optical-Illusion
Look at lines A and B. Which one is bigger? They are actually the same size. This is because the size of objects is sometimes distorted based on the context in which they are seen.

Well done... at least I saw this one, was up all night last night still trying to find the old woman and young woman Please keep these coming, they are great, sometimes aggravating but great
shame! I woudn't wanna be you!! Anyway, I actually didn't believe it until I took a ruler and actually measured them! Great one!
If you look at it without the parallelogram, you can easily see that they are the same sise, I love it .
My head is so full with geometry, there is no way you can fool me with that one. Nice try though.
wow, i stil dont beleive it is true
Good one. I don't believe it either lol!
thanks, another one for my favs list
cool!i can seeit!
Geometry is catching up with me. I liked it. I dont wanna sound like a math geek but it has something to do with the angle at which it's seen. mind boggling
To bad u sound like a math geek
I still think Line B is longer that Line A
Are you sure about the 'there the same part'? I measured them, and according to my ruler, and sevaral people armed with other rulers, they're not.
that one isn very hard all you have to do is look at it closley
Oh! These illusions are such fun
WAIT...ISN'T THIS PART OF THE RECONSTRUCTION PLAN FOR NEW ORLEANS BY THE ARMY CORP OF ENGINEERS VIA FEMA??
I don't believe you.
cant be true. I checked with a ruler but i still dont believe it.
WWOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i didn't quite believe this one til i checked it with a ruler
I had to measure it before I forced myself to believe it! Lol. A good one though!
amazing!!!
oooo
I've seen this one a lot, but I love it!
SWEET!!!!

Wow, most of the illusions you can see after a while. I had to actually measure this one to believe! Awwsome
um...try again?
that juist doesn't make sence but then again with a ruler
that was cool but i stared and stared and never saw any thing!!!!
Right...
Hand me a ruler
Hand me a ruler
Awesome
I loved it
it got me
I loved it
it got me
I don't think I'd believe this one even if I measured it!
its true, but it doesnt make any senese. you know, all the geometry you learn, one side of that triangle is the same, and the adjacent side on b is longer than the one on a, so the hypotenuse of b is supposed to longer...i dunno. confuzing
Are you serious?! WOW
how in the world...
checked wit ruler....true
B is bigger!
i dont think they could be the same. i think i need to get a ruler out!
Hard to believe.
Ruler's don't lie, but my eyes sure do. Very good.

That one was quite confusing.
Oh thank you very much
it's so so much about math
I like math do you know?ha ha
I really love it thank you very much
Once again thank you

That's because these lines making triangles are NOT RIGHT TRIANGLES. The Pythagorean theorem only works on right triangles, and so does not apply here.

Even knowing the answer, I find this one difficult to believe.
also the angles
I could not see it. I had to pull out a ruler
i dont understand stuff lik this its 2 confusing
threre is something wrong with my ruler
