Consider The Three Domainsd1d2 Andd3 Shown Belowdomaind3 Consist

Consider the three domains D1, D2, and D3 as described. Domain D3 consists of all points lying on a specified straight line. Determine the equation of this line. Given that the maximum X and Y span for all three domains is [−4, 4] and [4, −4], respectively, identify the predicates defining each domain. Provide five concrete test points for each domain D1, D2, and D3. Also, find the ON-points and OFF-points for each domain.

Paper For Above instruction

Understanding and analyzing the structure of geometrical domains in mathematical and computational contexts is essential for multiple applications, including computer graphics, geographic information systems, and pattern recognition. In this paper, we first derive the equation of a straight line constituting domain D3, followed by defining predicates for three specified domains based on spatial boundaries. Subsequently, we select representative test points within the defined range and classify them as ON-points (points lying inside the domain) or OFF-points (points outside the domain). This comprehensive approach enables the conceptualization of spatial domains, their mathematical descriptions, and practical testing strategies.

Equation of the Line in Domain D3

The problem states that domain D3 consists of points lying on a certain straight line. Since the explicit points or slope are not directly provided, we infer that the line must be determined based on the context or additional hints within the problem statement. Typically, if a line is specified through a domain, it might be along a common axis or a typical diagonal within the given span.

Assuming the domain D3 forms a line crossing the maximum spans from the given ranges, a natural candidate is the line passing through the points where the maximum x and y are involved, such as from (−4, 4) to (4, −4). The points (−4, 4) and (4, −4) suggest a line with a negative diagonal slope.

Calculating the slope, m:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-4 - 4)/(4 - (-4)) = (-8)/(8) = -1

The line passing through (−4, 4) with slope -1 is given by the point-slope form:

y - 4 = -1(x + 4)


⇒ y - 4 = -x - 4


⇒ y = -x

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

y = -x

Defining Predicates for the Domains

Given the maximum spans, the predicates for the domains are as follows:

  • Domain D1: Points with x and y within [−4, 4] that satisfy certain conditions, possibly above or below the line y = -x.
  • Domain D2: Points within the same maximum span but on the other side of the line y = -x.
  • Domain D3: Points lying precisely on the line y = -x within the maximum span.

Explicitly, these predicates can be defined as:

  • D1: (−4 ≤ x ≤ 4) AND (−4 ≤ y ≤ 4) AND (conditional on the position relative to y = -x). For example, points where y > -x.
  • D2: (−4 ≤ x ≤ 4) AND (−4 ≤ y ≤ 4) AND (conditional on the position relative to y = -x). For example, points where y
  • D3: (−4 ≤ x ≤ 4) AND (−4 ≤ y ≤ 4) AND (y = -x).

Test Points for Each Domain

To illustrate the domains, five representative test points are selected within the maximum span:

Domain D1 (e.g., y > -x):

  1. (−3, −2), since −2 > −(−3) = 3 — actually, this is below the line, so pick points with y > -x:
  2. (0, 1): 1 > -0 ⇒ inside D1
  3. (2, 3): 3 > -2 ⇒ inside D1
  4. (−4, 0): 0 > 4 ⇒ no, so pick (−4, 1): 1 > 4? No, so pick (−2, −1): -1 > 2? No, so pick (0, 0): 0 > 0 ? No; better pick (−1, 0): 0 > 1? No. Let's choose (0, 1): y=1, and x=0, then 1 > 0, so inside D1.
  5. (−1, 0): 0 > 1? No. Better points: (1, 2): 2 > -1? Yes, so (1, 2) in D1.

Domain D2 (e.g., y

  1. (−3, −4): −4
  2. (2, -4): -4
  3. (−1, -2): -2
  4. (0, −1): −1
  5. (−2, 1): 1

Domain D3 (points on the line y = -x):

  1. (−4, 4): satisfies y = -x.
  2. (−3, 3): satisfies y = -x.
  3. (0, 0): satisfies y = -x.
  4. (2, -2): satisfies y = -x.
  5. (4, -4): satisfies y = -x.

ON-points and OFF-points

In classification terms, ON-points are points lying inside or on the boundary of the domain, while OFF-points are outside the domain.

  • D1 ON-points: (0, 1), (1, 2), (−2, 3), (2, −1), (−3, 2)
  • D1 OFF-points: (−1, 0), (0, 0), (−4, 0), (4, 4), (−4, −4)
  • D2 ON-points: (−3, -4), (2, -4), (−1, -2), (0, -1), (−2, 1)
  • D2 OFF-points: (−4, 4), (0, 0), (4, 4), (−4, −4), (3, 2)
  • D3 ON-points: (−4, 4), (−3, 3), (0, 0), (2, -2), (4, -4)
  • D3 OFF-points: (−4, 3), (3, 4), (−2, -3), (1, 2), (2, 3)

Conclusion

This analysis illustrates the mathematical modeling of geometric domains within specified coordinate spans. The derivation of the line y = -x as the boundary for domain D3 enables classification of spatial points relative to that line. Defining predicates for the other domains allows for systematic testing and validation, essential for applications requiring spatial reasoning and computational geometry. The selected test points and classification into ON and OFF categories demonstrate the practical implementation of these concepts, providing a basis for further computational processing or graphical representation of such domains.
