Given an integer K, and two arrays X[] and Y[] both consisting of N integers, where (X[i], Y[i]) is a coordinate in a plane, the task is to find the total number of pairs of points such that the line passing through them has a slope in the range [-K, K].

Examples:

Input: X[] = {2, 1, 0}, Y[] = {1, 2, 0}, K = 1
Output: 2
Explanation:
The set of pairs satisfying the given condition are [(0, 0), (2, 1)] and [(1, 2), (2, 1)].

Input: X[] = {2, 4}, Y[][] = {5, 6}, K = 1
Output: 1

Approach: The idea is to traverse through all pairs of points and check whether their slope lies in the range [-K, K] or not. Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the number of pairs
// of points such that the line passing
// through them has a slope in the range[-k, k]
void findPairs(vector<int> x, vector<int> y,
               int K)
{
    int n = x.size();
 
    // Store the result
    int ans = 0;
 
    // Traverse through all the
    // combination of points
    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
 
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; ++j) {
 
            // If pair satisfies
            // the given condition
            if (K * abs(x[i] - x[j])
                >= abs(y[i] - y[j])) {
 
                // Increment ans by 1
                ++ans;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Print the result
    cout << ans;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    vector<int> X = { 2, 1, 0 },
                Y = { 1, 2, 0 };
    int K = 1;
 
    // Function Call
    findPairs(X, Y, K);
 
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java program for the above approach
import java.util.*;
class GFG
{
 
// Function to find the number of pairs
// of points such that the line passing
// through them has a slope in the range[-k, k]
static void findPairs(int[] x, int[] y,
               int K)
{
    int n = x.length;
 
    // Store the result
    int ans = 0;
 
    // Traverse through all the
    // combination of points
    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
 
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; ++j) {
 
            // If pair satisfies
            // the given condition
            if (K * Math.abs(x[i] - x[j])
                >= Math.abs(y[i] - y[j])) {
 
                // Increment ans by 1
                ++ans;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Print the result
    System.out.print(ans);
}
 
 
// Driven Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    int[] X = { 2, 1, 0 };
    int[] Y = { 1, 2, 0 };
    int K = 1;
 
    // Function Call
    findPairs(X, Y, K);
}
}
