Check if a given point lies inside a Polygon
In this problem, one polygon is given, and a point P is also given. We need to check whether the point is inside the polygon or outside the polygon.For solving it we will draw a straight line from the point P. It extends to the infinity. The line is horizontal, or it is parallel to the x-axis.From that line, we will count how many times the line intersects the sides of a polygon. When the point is inside the polygon, it will intersect the sides, an odd number of times, if P is placed on any side of the polygon, ...
Read MoreCheck Perfect Square or Not
A number is said to be a perfect square number if the square root of that number is an integer. In other words, when a square root is a whole number, then the number is called a perfect square number.We can check perfect square by finding the square root of that number and match with i again and again to get exact square root. When the square root crosses the value, it is not a perfect square number.But here to reduce effort, we have not checked the square root again and again. As we know that the square root of ...
Read MoreCheck if two given sets are disjoint?
Two sets are disjoint set when they have no common elements. In other words, if we get the intersection of two sets, then we will get null set.The method is simple, in this algorithm, two sets are given. We assume that both sets are already sorted, items are compared between two sets. when there is a match, then it is not a disjoint set, when no items are matched, they are disjoint sets.Input and OutputInput: Two sets: set1: {15, 12, 36, 21, 14} set2: {7, 89, 56, 32} Output: Both sets are disjointAlgorithmisDisjoint(set1, set2)Input: Two sets.Output: True when both sets ...
Read MoreCheck whether a given point lies inside a Triangle
Three points of a triangle are given; another point P is also given to check whether the point P is inside the triangle or not.To solve the problem, let consider the points of the triangle are A, B, and C. When the area of triangle Δ𝐴𝐵𝐶 = Δ𝐴𝐵𝑃 + Δ𝑃𝐵𝐶 + Δ𝐴𝑃𝐶, then the point P is inside the triangle.Input and OutputInput: Points of the triangle {(0, 0), (20, 0), (10, 30)} and point p (10, 15) to check. Output: Point is inside the triangle.AlgorithmisInside(p1, p2, p3, p)Input: Three points of a triangle, the point p to check.Output: True, when ...
