.NET4.5

The System.Windows.Shapes namespace (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.shapes%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^] provides the classes of Ellipse, Rectangle, Line, Polygon, etc. I want to draw some shapes like Diamond, Triangle, Reversed Triangle. Can these shapes be obtained through the Polygon class? If yes, could you provide me a sample? Thanks.

Well since all of those shapes are polygons I would say yes.

Solution 1

check the documentation of Graphics.FillPolygon Method[^].
follow the sample and you need to give the points for the shape you going to draw as parameter.

Yes, you can draw triangles using polygon. Since the URL in your question points to XAML, this link may help you with drawing triangles using XAML.
