The Impossible Triangle

The Impossible Triangle, also known as the Penrose Triangle, is an optical illusion and an example of an "impossible object." It appears to be a three-dimensional, triangular shape, but its construction is contradictory; it cannot exist in three-dimensional space. Each of its three edges seems to connect at a right angle, creating a continuous loop. When viewed, it tricks our minds into seeing a logical shape, despite being geometrically impossible. This paradox highlights how perception can be misleading, demonstrating the fascinating intersections of mathematics, art, and human visual perception.
