Red face here is my explanation

This is a typical case of optical illusion. It is very simple. Take the 'tan' of the angle at the top using the upper block. I mean, in first figure - take the tan of top angle using the top green triangle & in the second, the top red triangle.

The value is different in each case. This explains that the second triangle is not a perfect triangle.

I think I got it right.

well a second possibility cud be as follows:
if we look at the picture... we shall notice the base of the triangle is longer w.r.t the perpendicular. this is because (in the first picture) the triangle in red has a long base to add up with the base of the initial triangle....
now if we re-arrange the blocks... we have placed this longer base red triangle on the top while a triangle with a smaller base (the green one) is placed at the bottom... now to maintain the same base as b4 the two " L" blocks have to be placed at a block's gap.... more over they bein initially designed to interlink to form a vertical block have now been used vertically... so they go out of order...

i hope i was fair enough to explain my point... do let me know in case of ne doubts...

Talking Unusual paragraph

The figure is not correct and it can be proved in various ways.

Try this -

Quote:
"I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it.
It Looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact,
Nothing Is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but You still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out."

The paragraph does not contain letter 'e'.
