Detailed description

During some testing of a system that used rotatedRectangleIntersection and then contourArea to get the intersection area of 2 overlapping rectangles, we got a size of ~3500mm² instead of the expected ~7000mm².

It seems to be related to the fact that one edge of each rectangle are on the same line.

• Rectangle 1: RotatedRect(center=(824.6421183672817, 280.28737007069833), extent=(565.0, 140.0), angle=-177.80506896972656)
• Rectangle 2: RotatedRect(center=(567.3310438828003, 270.42527355719545), extent=(275.0, 50.0), angle=92.19493103027344)

This seems related to #21659, which should be fixed by #21677, but I haven't tested that as it hasn't been released.

Steps to reproduce

import cv2 as cv

res, points = cv.rotatedRectangleIntersection(
    ((824.6421183672817, 280.28737007069833), (565.0, 140.0), -177.80506896972656),
    ((567.3310438828003, 270.42527355719545), (275.0, 50.0), 92.19493103027344),
)

assert res == 1
assert points is not None

points = points.reshape(-1, 2)
area = cv.contourArea(points)
print(area)  # expected ~7000, got ~3500

Issue submission checklist

• I report the issue, it's not a question
• I checked the problem with documentation, FAQ, open issues, forum.opencv.org, Stack Overflow, etc and have not found any solution
• I updated to the latest OpenCV version and the issue is still there
• There is reproducer code and related data files (videos, images, onnx, etc)
