Hello all , I am trying to solve this problem [ spoj.pl/problems/MTRIAREA2 ] but i am getting wrong answer .I am using the rotating caliper technique explained at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_calipers1 . Could some one please tell me what is wrong with this approach . It would be also great if some one accepted can post some test case for this problem .
Thank You

Thanks vipul . Now i am suspecting that if this algorithm is able to solve this problem .Any one who is trying to solve this problem , rotating caliper algorithm assumes that one side of triangle will always overlap with convex polygon . May be ternary search could be helpful.

I did not get you. Initially i chose two caliper parallel to x axis , one passing from minimum y coordinate ( i + 0 * j ) [ say pa ] and second one passing through maximum y coordinate ( - i + 0 * j ) [ say pb ] . Now i computed the angle between vector ( pa , pa + 1 ) and ( i + 0 * j ) [ say patheta ] and angle between ( pb , pb + 1 ) with ( -i + 0 j ) [ say pbtheta ] . Now rotate the calipers by minimum of these two angles so technically , at every iterating one of caliper will overlap with side of polygon . Could you explain what do you mean by " Rotate calliper on vertices not on edges " .

Required triangle's edges may not coincide with that of convex hull but the 3 points will coincide with its vertices.
1. Choose a,b,c as first three points of convex hull( initial area = area of triangle abc )
2. Keep selecting next point to c as new c till area increases.
3. Now, select next point to b as new b, if area increases go to step 2.
4. Repeat 2,3 for all a and keep a track of maximum area found so far.

HI Vipul , i implemented the algorithm explained by you [ also same algorithm ideone.com/XoGhN2 ] .
