How to un-bowtie this bow-tie?

The below is taken from the polyshape example (specifically the bow-tie one) in the MATLAB documentation. Is there a way to turn this bowtie BACK into a simple rectangle polygon?

P = [0 0; 1 1; 1 0; 0 1; 0 0];

pgon = polyshape(P)

%Plot the polygon and compute its area.

plot(pgon)

A = area(pgon)

Hi,

I understand that you want to convert the existing shape into rectangle.

The polyshape syntax takes the points from matrix P and creates a shape by connecting each point in a linear fashion.

By changing the order of coordinates in matrix P, you would get a rectangle.

Below code gives the rectangle.

Hope it helps!

P = [0 0; 1 0; 1 1; 0 1; 0 0];
pgon = polyshape(P)
%Plot the polygon and compute its area.
plot(pgon)
A = area(pgon)
