Given an integer S, the task is to find the coordinates of a triangle whose area is (S / 2).

Examples: 

Input: S = 4 
Output: 
(0, 0) 
(1000000000, 1) 
(999999996, 1)

Input: S = 15 
Output: 
(0, 0) 
(1000000000, 1) 
(999999985, 1) 
 

Approach:  

  • It is known than the area of the triangle whose coordinates are (X1, Y1), (X2, Y2) and (X3, Y3) is given by A = ((X1 * Y2) + (X2 * Y3) + (X3 * Y1) – (X1 * Y3) – (X2 * Y1) – (X3 * Y2)) / 2.
  • Now fixing (X1, Y1) to (0, 0) gives A = ((X2 * Y3) – (X3 * Y2)) / 2.
  • It is given that A = S / 2 which implies S = (X2 * Y3) – (X3 * Y2).
  • Now fix (X2, Y2) to (109, 1) and the equation becomes S = 109 * Y3 – X3 which can be solved by taking an integer value of a variable that given the integer value for the other variable.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:  

C++




// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
const long MAX = 1000000000;
 
// Function to find the triangle
// with area = (S / 2)
void findTriangle(long S)
{
 
    // Fix the two pairs of coordinates
    long X1 = 0, Y1 = 0;
    long X2 = MAX, Y2 = 1;
 
    // Find (X3, Y3) with integer coordinates
    long X3 = (MAX - S % MAX) % MAX;
    long Y3 = (S + X3) / MAX;
 
    cout << "(" << X1 << ", " << Y1 << ")\n";
    cout << "(" << X2 << ", " << Y2 << ")\n";
    cout << "(" << X3 << ", " << Y3 << ")";
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
 
    long S = 4;
 
    findTriangle(S);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java implementation of the approach
class GFG
{
    static final long MAX = 1000000000;
     
    // Function to find the triangle
    // with area = (S / 2)
    static void findTriangle(long S)
    {
     
        // Fix the two pairs of coordinates
        long X1 = 0, Y1 = 0;
        long X2 = MAX, Y2 = 1;
     
        // Find (X3, Y3) with integer coordinates
        long X3 = (MAX - S % MAX) % MAX;
        long Y3 = (S + X3) / MAX;
     
        System.out.println("(" + X1 +
                           ", " + Y1 + ")");
        System.out.println("(" + X2 +
                           ", " + Y2 + ")");
        System.out.println("(" + X3 +
                           ", " + Y3 + ")");
    }
     
    // Driver code
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
        long S = 4;
     
        findTriangle(S);
    }
}

# Python3 implementation of the approach

    # Fix the two pairs of coordinates
    X1 = 0; Y1 = 0;
    X2 = MAX; Y2 = 1;
 
    # Find (X3, Y3) with integer coordinates
    X3 = (MAX - S % MAX) % MAX;
    Y3 = (S + X3) / MAX;
 
    print("(", X1, ",", Y1, ")");
    print("(", X2, ",", Y2, ")");
    print("(", X3, ",", Y3, ")");
