UtilIntersectCircleYSphere(Double, Vector3, Double, Double) Method

Calculate the intersection points of a circle (centered at Origin and in the XZ plane) and a sphere surface (using 10^-6 as a tolerance in equality).

Namespace: Demo3D.Common
Assembly: Demo3D.Common (in Demo3D.Common.dll) Version: 19.01.00
Syntax
C#
Copy
public static Vector3[] IntersectCircleYSphere(
	double circleRadius,
	Vector3 sphereCenter,
	double sphereRadius,
	double epsilon
)

Parameters

circleRadius  Double
Radius of the circle.
sphereCenter  Vector3
Center of the sphere.
sphereRadius  Double
Radius of the sphere.
epsilon  Double
Tolerance for floating point comparisons.

Return Value

Vector3
null meaning no intersections (includes case where circle is contained in the sphere, or circle is completely on the surface), or a Vector3[2], containing the two intersections (which could be the same).
