Since I was so kind enough to post the image for you, lol, I may as well go ahead and answer it. If you look closely at the upper image you will see it is not a triangle. The upper line is actually two lines joined where the red and green meet meaning it is actually a four sided object. If you were to straighten the line it would allow you to see space between the line and image equal in volume to the missing square in the lower pic.

Thanks for that Marsha.
I had concluded that the hypotenues was in fact concave in some way making up for the area of the spare square, if you look carefully at that line there is a slight difference in the grid all the way allong.
