how to generate points inside a rectangle not parallel to axis in Matlab

4 views (last 30 days)
Dear all,
I want to generate points inside a rectangle that is not parallel to the axis and have only the length, width, center, and degree of tilt. of the rectangle. Can any one help me with it please. I'm writing down some of the code. Thank you in advance.
z=[ 34.7814 29.7298 41.9441 28.3367 12.8067];
w=z(1); %width
h=z(2);%length
x=z(3);% center
y=z(4);%center
alpha=z(5); %degree of tilt
xv = [-w/2 w/2 w/2 -w/2 -w/2];
yv = [h/2 h/2 -h/2 -h/2 h/2];
R = [xv;yv];
alpha2=alpha*pi/180;
ct = cos(alpha2);
st = sin(alpha2);
Q = [ct -st;st ct];
XY1 = Q*R;
XY=[XY1(1,:)+x;XY1(2,:)+y];
center=(XY(:,1)+XY(:,3))/2;

You mean you want to generate N random points? If so, then,
xy=Q*([length;width].*(rand(2,N)-0.5)) + center(:)
