Problem

I have solved this using basic geometry.While looking for better approach(if any), I read here that it can be solved using binary search.

But, I am not able to come up with any solution using binary search. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Use Descartes Theorem. You can also NTHCIRC from July challenge which is based on same concept.

Descarte’s theorem is just a result to compute the answer. What I needed was a hint for “binary search” approach. Thanks for your reply anyways. :slight_smile:
