Shade an area between 5 lines

I am trying to shade this region between the 5 lines I have below(i filled it in using paint), i tried using the fill function but I dont understand how to use it for more than 2 lines.

x=linspace(-1,1);
y=linspace(-10,0);
y2 = 832.4*x-1/(14);
plot(x,y2,'b');
title('Inequalities');
hold on ;
xline(-1/4.2,'r');
yline(0,'k');
hold on ;
y3 = (3443)/(24972)+5.598041235*x;
plot(x,y3,'g');
hold on ;
y4 = 34.43018313*x-(241)/(48928);
plot(x,y4,'m');
hold on;
xlim([-0.3 0]);
ylim([-10 1]);

Hi tom thornton,

have a look here: https://de.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/467419-how-to-get-different-colours-for-different-regions-for-this-problem

It's a similar question with answer.

Kind regards,

Robert

Hi robert, thank you for the reply. I am looking at the code but I don't quite understand how to implement it into mine.

You would have to find the vortices defining the border of the area to shade. Easiest way is to define boolean selections to accomplish that.

sorry, i dont understand what the booleans would be for me.

x=linspace(-1,1);
y=linspace(-10,0);

x1 = -1/4.2;
y1 = 0;
y2 = @(x)832.4*x-1/(14);
y3 = @(x)(3443)/(24972)+5.598041235*x;
y4 = @(x)34.43018313*x-(241)/(48928);


plot(x,y2(x),'b');
title('Inequalities');
hold on ;
xline(x1,'r');
yline(y1,'k');
plot(x,y3(x),'g');
plot(x,y4(x),'m');

xlim([-0.3 0]);
ylim([-10 1]);

v1 = [x1; y4(x1)];
v2 = [x1; min([y3(x1),y1])];
v3 = [-(3443)/(24972)/5.598041235; y1]; % y3 = 0
v4 = [1/(14)/832.4; y1]; % y2 = 0
v5 = [((241)/(48928)-1/(14))/(-832.4+34.43018313);y2(((241)/(48928)-1/(14))/(-832.4+34.43018313))]; % y4 = y2


patch('XData',[v1(1,:),v2(1,:),v3(1,:),v4(1,:),v5(1,:),v1(1,:)],'YData',[v1(2,:),v2(2,:),v3(2,:),v4(2,:),v5(2,:),v1(2,:)],'FaceAlpha',0.7,'FaceColor','red')
