Direction of a cone and 3D point is inside or not on cone!!!!

1 view (last 30 days)
Hello! I have the follow cone code:
r = 112.0; % radius
h = 100.0; % heigth
m = (h/r);
[R,A] = meshgrid(linspace(0,r,11),linspace(0,2*pi,41));
X = (R .* cos(A));
Y = (R .* sin(A));
Z = (m*R);
h=surf(X+185,Y+200,Z+210); % begin in the specific point
axis square
First of all, i don´t know if the cone was built correctly. I need create a cone with tip point in (x=185,y=200,z=210) but with a specific direction ( i need test to check what is the perfect), but i don't know how i change de direction (the normalized axis vector, pointing from the tip to the base).
Other thing is, how i check if a 3D point (with x,y and z coordinate) is inside or outside of cone?
Thanks for your attention
