Compare the two tables in the above figure. Which would be easier to get through a narrow door? How do size and shape of the two table tops compare?
Now either press the Run button, or click and drag the left table top on top of the right table. If you click & drag far off that parallelogram you can rotate it and test whether it fits.
The two table tops certainly do not look alike!
This phenomenon plays on the interchange of 2- and 3-dimensional interpretation of the figure. If the figure depicted a real-world scene, the real tables certainly would have a different shape.
Get a ruler and put it up against the screen. If you measure the table tops you will see that they are exactly the same.
