Detecting intersections of two line segments, where the grid has the size 1 pt to suggest the synthesized image, is 2 pt. (a) The lines segments intersect. (b) The line segments are close and points to , but there is no need to move since their shortest distance is higher than . (c) The intersection point is outside both line segments, but is smaller than , so an intersection of the corresponding lines of the synthesized image is expected.
