distinguish between an illusion and an ambiguous figure?

an illusion is a clearly perceived, if false, reality. an ambiguity is a true reality which is not clearly defined.\nfor example: if I call you a mindless tugboat that is ambiguous because the exact interpretation that I intend is not clear; if I request you to pull yourself together, however, that is an illusion because no amount of self-abuse will prevent you from coming up with these stupid questions.

Always falsifications are possible. The experts know how to look. The crook can be such an expert.\nThe same with paintings

When we observe anything that is beyond our senses, or beyond the capacity of our tools, two things happen: either we find nothing, or what we find is an illusion - perhaps influenced by observation, or even the thoughts of the observer. Most of what we sense as physical beings, and observe with our tools (e.g. science), can only be illusion

Can someone explain to me the satisfaction gained in "proving" what is known to be untrue and can only be "proved" by disguising the deception involved. Is it the appeal of "Magic" conjuring tricks? \n\nDividing by zero is simply a sleight of hand which any half-educated person knows is not a legitimate move you can make. So all such "proofs" are at pains to disguise that is what they are doing. And once spotted, are revealed to be a hollow sham.\n\nTHIS DOESN'T SEEM A USEFUL WAY FOR ANYONE TO SPEND THEIR TIME, TO ME!

Look at them carefully, find out the diff between each number and it should be obvious.\n\nEquations?

I assume you mean mirage? If you can feel it, it's real, if not, it's a mirage - or an hallucination.

For example, you have a square and a circle and you are trying to classify them.  The first question would say "Are the sides all straight?"  If you are looking at the square, you would say yes.  You would look at the two possible answers, yes and no, and see where it says to go.  Since the difference between a square and circle are clear, there probably wouldn't be another question, but supposing there was, it might say "Are there any right angles?"  Yes again.  Go to the yes answer and go where it says to go.  Repeat this until you classify everything

Yes, the concept is illusion, you need action to make it real.  And some concepts are fallacious; you can understand it but it is not truth.  Others concepts may be truth for some but not for you.   For example, if it goes against your basic values.   Imagine a capitalist trying to live as a socialist, for lack of a better example.

How would one know if this 'cream' were indeed real, since no one could see it?

There are actually 2 ways to see Magic Eye pictures (also called random dot stereograms).  One way is with your eyes crossed and the other is with them uncrossed, but I don't remember which way gives you which image.  It's usually easier for people to do it one way over the other.  And then there's people like me who have to work really hard to do either.

Adaptations are hard-wired into our brains, and thus under some artificial manipulations can cause inappropriate interpretations of the visual scene. Or, as Purkinje put it: "Illusions of the senses tell us the truth about perception" (cited by Teuber, 1960).

No.\n\nI can always find a real world explanation for things that seem "mysterious" to me. You just have to be willing to question things and go out and look for the real answer.
