This approach involves calculating the area of each rectangle separately, then finding the overlapping area, and subtracting it from the total. First, calculate the area of each rectangle by using the formula width multiplied by height. To find the overlap, determine the maximum of the bottom-left x and y coordinates, and the minimum of the top-right x and y coordinates. If the rectangles do intersect, subtract the overlap area from the sum of the rectangle areas to get the total covered area.
The time complexity is O(1) since it involves basic arithmetic operations, and the space complexity is also O(1) as no additional space is needed beyond a few variables.

2 const area1 = (ax2 - ax1) * (ay2 - ay1);
3 const area2 = (bx2 - bx1) * (by2 - by1);
4 const overlapWidth = Math.min(ax2, bx2) - Math.max(ax1, bx1);
5 const overlapHeight = Math.min(ay2, by2) - Math.max(ay1, by1);
6 let overlapArea = 0;
7 if (overlapWidth > 0 && overlapHeight > 0) {
8 overlapArea = overlapWidth * overlapHeight;
9 }
10 return area1 + area2 - overlapArea;

15This JavaScript function computes the area using the same formulae as other languages. It finds overlap dimensions using Math.min and Math.max and then calculates overlap area, which is subtracted from the sum of the two rectangles' areas.
By using the coordinate sweep method, we can iterate through all points in a uniform grid covering both rectangles. This technique conceptualizes sweeping lines across the plane, adding and subtracting areas as intersections are counted. Use sorting and a plane-sweep technique to determine overlapping intervals more effectively.
The time complexity remains O(1) since it involves constant time computation, while the space complexity is also O(1) because it uses a constant number of variables.

}The C# solution determines whether two rectangles overlap and computes their combined area by subtracting any overlap. Simplified conditional logic determines if rectangles meet overlap criteria based on bounding conditions.
