To check if a point is on the left or right side of a line in TypeScript, you can use the cross product between the vectors formed by the line segments.
Assuming you have a line defined by two points, (x1, y1)
and (x2, y2)
, and a point (x, y)
that you want to check, you can calculate the cross product as follows:
index.ts688 chars16 lines
You can call this function passing the coordinates of your line and the point you want to check. It will return 1
if the point is to the left of the line, -1
if it's to the right, and 0
if it lies on the line.
Example usage:
index.ts181 chars10 lines
In this example, the point (1, 3)
is to the right of the line defined by (0, 0)
and (2, 2)
.
