How to mirror a plot in x and y axis.

I want to mirror a plot in x and y axis so i forms a symmetrical shape made of four of the same randomly generated polygon.

   prompt = {'Enter Number of vertices:',}
   numberOfVertices = str2num(cell2mat(inputdlg(prompt, 'enter a number', 5)))
  %numberOfVertices = 7; % Fixed at 7 for this demo.
  coordinates = rand(numberOfVertices, 2);
  coordinates(1,:) = [0, 0]; % Force first coord to 0,0
  coordinates(end+1,:) = [0, 0]; % Force last coord to 0,0
  plot(coordinates(:,1), coordinates(:,2));
  grid on;
  randomColor = rand(1,3);
  patch(coordinates(:,1), coordinates(:,2), randomColor); % Can use fill() also.
  set(gca, 'xdir', 'reverse');
  grid on;

*mirror both in x axis and y axis

hold on
   plot(-coordinates(:,1), -coordinates(:,2));

mirror only in x axis

   hold on
       plot(coordinates(:,1), -coordinates(:,2));

mirror only in y axis

   hold on
       plot(-coordinates(:,1), coordinates(:,2));

That does invert the image but i want all four mirrors of the shape to appear on the figure.

   prompt = {'Enter Number of vertices:',}
   numberOfVertices = str2num(cell2mat(inputdlg(prompt, 'enter a number', 5)))
  %numberOfVertices = 7; % Fixed at 7 for this demo.
  coordinates = rand(numberOfVertices, 2);
  coordinates(1,:) = [0, 0]; % Force first coord to 0,0
  coordinates(end+1,:) = [0, 0]; % Force last coord to 0,0
  hold on;
  plot(coordinates(:,1), coordinates(:,2));
  grid on;
  randomColor = rand(1,3);
  patch(coordinates(:,1), coordinates(:,2), randomColor); % Can use fill() also.
  set(gca, 'xdir', 'reverse');
  set(gca, 'ydir', 'reverse');
  set(gca, 'xdir', 'reverse');
  grid on;

I'm not sure what exactly the four mirrors are.

I want the polygon to form a symmetrical shape by being mirrored so it forms a shape made of four of itself but i cant figure out the last mirror.

Never mind i got it.

How you did it?
