How to create a bounding box with a right angled triangle.

Hello,

I'm new to matlab. Could any one help me how to create a bounding box with right angled triangle say the coordinates are (0, 0) (100, 0), (0, 150).

Thank you.

I assume that a bounding box is needed to be drawn over a right-angled triangle.

x1 = [0 1 0]; 
y1 = [0 0 1]; 
polyin = polyshape(x1,y1); 
[xlim,ylim] = boundingbox(polyin); 
plot(polyin) 
hold on 
rectangle('position',[xlim(1),ylim(1),xlim(2),ylim(2)]) 

The polyshape function create a 2-D polygon, here a right-angled triangle with the given vertices values.

The boundingbox function returns the x,y bounds of the smallest rectangle enclosing the triangle.
