Here's an implementation of the green theorem in JavaScript:
index.tsx589 chars22 linesThis function expects an array of points, where each point is an object with x and y properties, e.g.:
index.tsx195 chars10 linesThe greenTheorem function calculates the area and centroid of the polygon defined by the points using the green theorem. The area is calculated as the sum of the cross products of each pair of adjacent points divided by 2. The centroid is calculated using the formula:
$$ \frac{1}{6A}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(x_i+x_{i+1})(x_iy_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_i), \frac{1}{6A}\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}(y_i+y_{i+1})(x_iy_{i+1}-x_{i+1}y_i) $$
where A is the area of the polygon.
Note that the points must be ordered either clockwise or counterclockwise for this to work correctly.
