Pick's Theorem Definition
If a polygon is constructed on an equal-distanced lattice and all polygon's vertices are lattice points:

then Pick's theorem states:

where:
i is the number of interior lattice points located inside the polygon, and
b is the number of points placed on the polygon's perimeter
