Pick's Theorem

Rarely Tested

  • To find the number of integral points inside the closed area, we can use Pick's Theorem.
  • Pick's Theorem: $$A\ =\ I+\frac{B}{2}-1$$ (Where, A = Area of the closed figure, I = the number of points inside the figure, B = the number of points on the boundaries)
Question 1

Question 2

Find the number of points with integral coordinates which lie in the region enclosed by |x|+|y| = 4 or on the boundary.
