如果直线的坐标为A.x, A.y和B.x, B.y，圆心为C.x, C.y，则直线公式为:

x = A.x * t + B.x * (1 - t)

y = A.y * t + B.y * (1 - t)

0 < = t < = 1

这个圆是

(C.x - x)²+ (C.y - y)²= R²

如果你把直线的x和y公式代入圆公式，你会得到一个t的二阶方程，它的解是交点(如果有的话)。如果你得到的t小于0或大于1，那么它不是一个解，但它表明这条线“指向”圆的方向。

这是一个Javascript实现。我的方法是首先将线段转换成一条无限的直线，然后找到交点。从那里，我检查是否找到的点在线段上。代码有良好的文档记录，您应该能够跟随。

您可以在这个现场演示中试用代码。 代码是从我的算法仓库里拿的。

只是这个线程的一个补充… 下面是pahlevan发布的代码版本，但针对c# /XNA，并做了一些整理:

    /// <summary>
    /// Intersects a line and a circle.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="location">the location of the circle</param>
    /// <param name="radius">the radius of the circle</param>
    /// <param name="lineFrom">the starting point of the line</param>
    /// <param name="lineTo">the ending point of the line</param>
    /// <returns>true if the line and circle intersect each other</returns>
    public static bool IntersectLineCircle(Vector2 location, float radius, Vector2 lineFrom, Vector2 lineTo)
    {
        float ab2, acab, h2;
        Vector2 ac = location - lineFrom;
        Vector2 ab = lineTo - lineFrom;
        Vector2.Dot(ref ab, ref ab, out ab2);
        Vector2.Dot(ref ac, ref ab, out acab);
        float t = acab / ab2;

        if (t < 0)
            t = 0;
        else if (t > 1)
            t = 1;

        Vector2 h = ((ab * t) + lineFrom) - location;
        Vector2.Dot(ref h, ref h, out h2);

        return (h2 <= (radius * radius));
    }

我发现这个解决方案似乎比其他一些解决方案更容易遵循。

采取:

p1 and p2 as the points for the line, and
c as the center point for the circle and r for the radius

我可以用斜截式来解直线方程。但是，我不想处理以c为点的复杂方程，所以我只是平移了坐标系使圆在(0,0)处

p3 = p1 - c
p4 = p2 - c

顺便说一下，当我相互减分的时候，我是在减去x再减去y，然后把它们放到一个新的点里，以防有人不知道。

不管怎样，我现在解出p3和p4的直线方程

m = (p4_y - p3_y) / (p4_x - p3) (the underscore is an attempt at subscript)
y = mx + b
y - mx = b (just put in a point for x and y, and insert the m we found)

好的。现在我需要让这两个方程相等。首先我需要解圆的x方程

x^2 + y^2 = r^2
y^2 = r^2 - x^2
y = sqrt(r^2 - x^2)

然后我让它们相等:

mx + b = sqrt(r^2 - x^2)

求二次方程(0 = ax^2 + bx + c)

(mx + b)^2 = r^2 - x^2
(mx)^2 + 2mbx + b^2 = r^2 - x^2
0 = m^2 * x^2 + x^2 + 2mbx + b^2 - r^2
0 = (m^2 + 1) * x^2 + 2mbx + b^2 - r^2

现在我有了a b c。

a = m^2 + 1
b = 2mb
c = b^2 - r^2

我把这个代入二次公式

(-b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

用值代入，然后尽可能简化:

(-2mb ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a
(-2mb ± sqrt((-2mb)^2 - 4(m^2 + 1)(b^2 - r^2))) / 2(m^2 + 1)
(-2mb ± sqrt(4m^2 * b^2 - 4(m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * r^2 + b^2 - r^2))) / 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * b^2 - (m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * r^2 + b^2 - r^2))))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * b^2 - m^2 * b^2 + m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2)))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4 * (m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2)))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± sqrt(4) * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 - b^2 + r^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(m^2 * r^2 + r^2 - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2
(-2mb ± 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2

这几乎是化简的极限了。最后，分离出带有±的方程:

(-2mb + 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2 or     
(-2mb - 2 * sqrt(r^2 * (m^2 + 1) - b^2))/ 2m^2 + 2 

然后简单地将这两个方程的结果代入mx + b中的x。为了清晰起见，我写了一些JavaScript代码来演示如何使用这个:

function interceptOnCircle(p1,p2,c,r){
    //p1 is the first line point
    //p2 is the second line point
    //c is the circle's center
    //r is the circle's radius

    var p3 = {x:p1.x - c.x, y:p1.y - c.y} //shifted line points
    var p4 = {x:p2.x - c.x, y:p2.y - c.y}

    var m = (p4.y - p3.y) / (p4.x - p3.x); //slope of the line
    var b = p3.y - m * p3.x; //y-intercept of line

    var underRadical = Math.pow((Math.pow(r,2)*(Math.pow(m,2)+1)),2)-Math.pow(b,2)); //the value under the square root sign 

    if (underRadical < 0){
    //line completely missed
        return false;
    } else {
        var t1 = (-2*m*b+2*Math.sqrt(underRadical))/(2 * Math.pow(m,2) + 2); //one of the intercept x's
        var t2 = (-2*m*b-2*Math.sqrt(underRadical))/(2 * Math.pow(m,2) + 2); //other intercept's x
        var i1 = {x:t1,y:m*t1+b} //intercept point 1
        var i2 = {x:t2,y:m*t2+b} //intercept point 2
        return [i1,i2];
    }
}

我希望这能有所帮助!

下面是JavaScript的一个很好的解决方案(包括所有必需的数学和实时插图) https://bl.ocks.org/milkbread/11000965

尽管该解决方案中的is_on函数需要修改:

函数is_on(a, b, c) { return Math.abs(距离(a,c) +距离(c,b) -距离(a,b))<0.000001; ｝

我只是需要它，所以我想出了这个解决方案。语言是maxscript，但是它应该很容易被翻译成任何其他语言。 sideA, sideB和CircleRadius为标量，其余变量为[x,y,z]。假设z=0在XY平面上求解

fn projectPoint p1 p2 p3 = --project  p1 perpendicular to the line p2-p3
(
    local v= normalize (p3-p2)
    local p= (p1-p2)
    p2+((dot v p)*v)
)
fn findIntersectionLineCircle CircleCenter CircleRadius LineP1 LineP2=
(
    pp=projectPoint CircleCenter LineP1 LineP2
    sideA=distance pp CircleCenter
    --use pythagoras to solve the third side
    sideB=sqrt(CircleRadius^2-sideA^2) -- this will return NaN if they don't intersect
    IntersectV=normalize (pp-CircleCenter)
    perpV=[IntersectV.y,-IntersectV.x,IntersectV.z]
    --project the point to both sides to find the solutions
    solution1=pp+(sideB*perpV)
    solution2=pp-(sideB*perpV)
    return #(solution1,solution2)
)
