Easy.
The drawing doesn't accurately show what is going on. A better drawn rectangle would show that its diagonal is not aligned, and that space within the diagonal is exactly 1 square. If you accurately did what the animation does the trapezoids wouldn't fit quite so neatly.
The bottom point of the blue trapezoid/top point of the orange trapezoid in the rectangle is
The left point of the green triangle/right point of the red triangle is arctan(3/8) = 20.556º.
68.199º + 20.556º = 88.755º <> 90º.

To be sure, someone should print the 8*8 grid, cut it and rearrange it like in that gif.
And by someone, I mean not me.

When I upload an image from my phone, I get an "insuffucient characters" error from UBB. Dunno why. So I just throw a few useless characters in before the image.

Hotlinks don't have the same error.

I totally agree about the Eagles, except when Joe Walsh is talking the lead.
It's a pretty damned good list otherwise. I did purchase one Fastball song though, but don't know anything about them than that one song.
I like how it lists both 10,000 Maniacs and Natalie Merchant close to the top. The only thing worse than her music is listening to her being interviewed.
And Proteus brought the upright beast into the garden and chained him to a tree and the children did make sport of him.

Oh? I've never heard her interviewed. What's the deal?
