Count right angled triangles in a matrix having two of its sides parallel to sides of the matrix

Given a binary matrix arr[][] of dimensions N * M , the task is to count the number of right-angled triangles that can be formed by joining the cells containing the value 1 such that the triangles must have any two of its sides parallel to the sides of the rectangle.

Examples:

Input: arr[][] = {{0, 1, 0}, {1, 1, 1}, {0, 1, 0}}
Output: 4
Explanation: Right-angled triangles that can be formed are (a[1][1], a[1][0], a[0][1]), (a[1][1], a[2][1], a[1][0]), (a[1][1], a[1][2], a[0][1]) and (a[1][1], a[1][2], a[2][1])

Input: arr[][] = {{1, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 1, 1}, {1, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 0, 1}}
Output: 16

Approach: The idea is to traverse the given grid and store the count of 1s present in each row and each column in auxiliary arrays row[] and col[] respectively. Then for each cell in the grid arr[][], if arr[i][j] is 1, then the total number of right-angled triangles formed can be calculated by (row[i] – 1)*(col[j] – 1) for each cell. Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

  • Initialize the arrays col[] and row[] with 0.
  • Traverse the given grid and visit every cell arr[i][j].
  • If arr[i][j] is 1, increment row[i] and col[j] by 1.
  • After traversing the grid, initialize a variable ans with 0.
  • Again traverse the whole grid and now, if arr[i][j] is 1 then update the count of the right-angled triangle by:

(row[i] – 1)*(col[j] – 1)

  • After traversing, print the value of ans as the total number of right-angled triangles.

Below is the implementation for the above approach:

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count the right-angled
// triangle in the given grid a[][]
int numberOfTriangle(
    vector<vector<int> >& a)
{
    int N = a.size();
    int M = a[0].size();
 
    // Stores the count of 1s for
    // each row[] and column[]
    int rows[N] = { 0 };
    int columns[M] = { 0 };
 
    // Find the number of 1s in
    // each of the rows[0, N - 1]
    for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
        for (int j = 0; j < M; ++j) {
 
            // Increment row[i]
            if (a[i][j] == 1) {
                rows[i]++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Find the number of 1s in
    // each of the columns[0, N - 1]
    for (int i = 0; i < M; ++i) {
 
        for (int j = 0; j < N; ++j) {
 
            // Increment columns[i]
            if (a[j][i] == 1) {
                columns[i]++;
            }
        }
    }
 
    // Stores the count of triangles
    int answer = 0;
 
    for (int i = 0; i < N; ++i) {
        for (int j = 0; j < M; ++j) {
 
            // If current cell has value 1
            if (a[i][j] == 1) {
 
                // Update the answer
                answer += (rows[i] - 1)
                          * (columns[j] - 1);
            }
        }
 
        
    }
   // Return the count
        return answer;
}
 
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given grid arr[][]
    vector<vector<int> > arr;
 
    arr = { { 1, 0, 1, 0 },
            { 0, 1, 1, 1 },
            { 1, 0, 1, 0 },
            { 0, 1, 0, 1 } };
 
    // Function Call
    cout << numberOfTriangle(arr);
 
    return 0;
