How do you find where two polygons intersect?

Compute the center of mass for each polygon. Compute the min or max or average distance from each point of the polygon to the center of mass. If C1C2 (where C1/2 is the center of the first/second polygon) >= D1 + D2 (where D1/2 is the distance you computed for first/second polygon) then the two polygons “intersect”.
