False Dudeney : triangle to quiet a square.

273 Views Asked by At

ABC is an equilateral triangle. The same color polygons are isometric.

I can prove that MPQR is a rectangle, but not that it's not a square.

MI = IP and RF' = F'Q = FN.

As MPQR is a rectangle MI = IP = RF' = F'Q = FN.

This equalities are independent of the choice of E and F.

PQ = QR is equivalent to : EM + EN = 2FN

Why in this case : PQ is not equal to RQ ?
