        font-weight: bold;
        width: 250px;
        height: 200px;
        transform: skew(20deg);
        background: #f00;
        overflow: hidden;
    }

    #eq-triangle {
        width: 300px;
        height: 0;
        border-bottom: 104px solid blue;
        /* 104 = 120 * 0.866 */
        border-left: 60px solid transparent;
        border-right: 60px solid transparent;
    }
