Comment on Square!
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 months agoNo, it is 2 contiguous regions. The line of separation is the bounding line of a “shape.”
Otherwise, the entire whitespace outside of the region is also part of the shape, as is anything it touches.

OK, imagine the space outside of the shape is black, or see through or whatever.
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Well then the line of separation means nothing and then you’ve lost a right angle to the contiguous void.
Threeme2189@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Why? Does a cube floating in the void not have angles?
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Without a distinction of where the cube begins or ends it does not because there is no cube and there are no angles.

The angle of the triangle that protrudes into the circular part is not a right angle.
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 months ago
My apologies you’re correct, you lose two right angles.
