Some years back, we bricked up a serving hatch in the wall between the kitchen & dining room. It was, in principle, rectangular, however only two diametrically opposite corners were actually right angles. You could forgive the gibbon who installed it if the shelf on which you might place the dinner had been horizontal, though it wasn’t.
Actually, the whole house was built by people who had clearly had no more than a cursory introduction geometry, or indeed, basic carpentry. Or, come to that, plumbing, electrickery or glazing.
We’ve been there twenty odd years, we might eventually sort it...
