making points, rotating it, plotting.

p1=[0;0] p2=[sqrt(3/4);-1/2] p3=[sqrt(3/4);1/2] p4=[0;1]

make a vector r from point p1 to p2:

r=p2-p1

construct a new vector s by rotating r 90 degree counterclockwise.

Make a new point: t2=p1+1/2*r+-1/6*sqrt(3/4)*s

repeat this between every point(p2 and p3, p3 and p4, and p4 and p1). connect these points as P1 with the 4 new points, plot it, and rotate it 120 degre two times. You should then have your final figure.

I try to follow the assignment pretty strictly, but for some reason i dont get the same figure as my book has.

Anyone who can help me solving it?

post your code, your plot and plot you expect to get.

>> theta=90*pi/180;

>> R=[cos(theta) -sin(theta);sin(theta) cos(theta)]

>> r1=p2-p1; >> s1=R*r1; >> t1=p1+1/2*r1+-1/6*sqrt(3/4)*s1;

>> r2=p3-p2; >> s2=R*r2; >> t2=p1+1/2*r2+-1/6*sqrt(3/4)*s2;

>> r3=p4-p3; >> s3=R*r3; >> t3=p1+1/2*r3+-1/6*sqrt(3/4)*s3;

>> r4=p4-p1; >> s4=R*r4; >> t4=p1+1/2*r4+-1/6*sqrt(3/4)*s4;

>> P1=[t1 t2 t3 t4];

>> x1=P1(1,:);

>> y1=P1(2,:);

>> P1=[t1 t2 t3 t4];

>> fill(x1,y1,'r')

the black part is what i am supposed to get just from this, and by rotating it two times with 120 degree, i should get the two other fields.

the last here is mine
