Table Size Illusion

These two tables in this image by Roger Shepard appear to be different sizes, the one on the left is oriented vertically and seems to be longer and thinner. Remarkably, both tables are actually exactly the same size.

Sorry Matt, you lose! Maybe your printer isn't accurate. Try drawing one for yourself. Cut out a parallelogram, then trace around it. Add legs and you'll get the same effect.

this is actually not true, i printed off this image, and cut out the tables placing them on top of each other. the one on the left is actually wider and shorter than the one on the right. this is no illusion.
