Both triangles apparently have the same pieces rearranged, so should have the same area, but one is missing a square. Its illogicizing my poop brain!

notice that in the top image the red triangle is 3 high, but on the bottom image the same location is very slightly more. also notice that in the bottom image the blue triangle is 2 high, but on the top image the same location is very slightly less. the angle of the blue and red triangles are not the same.
herein lies the hidden volume of the missing space.
