The auxiliary triangle to define the support of type I segregation

Description

Returns the triangle whose intersection with a general triangle gives the support for type I segregation given the delta (i.e., \delta 100 % area of a triangle around the vertices is chopped off). See the plot in the examples.

Caveat: the vertices of this triangle may be outside the triangle, tri, depending on the value of delta (i.e., for small values of delta).

Usage

seg.tri.support(delta, tri)

Arguments

delta	A positive real number between 0 and 1 that determines the percentage of area of the triangle around the vertices forbidden for point generation.
tri	A 3 \times 2 matrix with each row representing a vertex of the triangle.

Value

the vertices of the triangle (stacked row-wise) whose intersection with a general triangle gives the support for type I segregation for the given delta
