The laws of closure and good continuation are illustrated by this visual illusion. The brain perceives a white triangle even though there are only three black Pac-Man shapes arranged in a way that suggests the outline of a triangle. This is due to the brain's tendency to fill in gaps and perceive incomplete shapes as whole. These principles are part of the Gestalt theory of perception.
