How to find point of intersection ?

I have 4 coordinate and need to find the point of intersection. Can someone share the coding to find the intersection point and to display the point in graph below. Thank You.mat.JPG

Try this:
blue = [1 5; 1 5]; % [x1 x2; y1 y2]
red = [1 5; 3 2]; % [x1 x2; y1 y2]
Bb = [blue(1,:)' ones(2,1)] \ blue(2,:)'
Br = [red(1,:)' ones(2,1)] \ red(2,:)'
xint = (Br(2) - Bb(2)) / (Bb(1) - Br(1))
yint = [xint 1] * Bb
figure
plot(blue(1,:)', blue(2,:)', '-b')
hold on
plot(red(1,:), red(2,:), '-r')
plot(xint, yint, 'pg', 'MarkerSize',10)
hold off
producing:
xint =
2.6000
yint =
2.6000

plot(blue(1,:)', blue(2,:)', '-b')
hold on
plot(red(1,:), red(2,:), '-r')
plot(xint, yint, 'pg', 'MarkerSize',10)
hold off
what mean 'pg' ? thank you
As always, my pleasure!
The 'pg' in the plot call denotes a green five-pointed star (‘pentagram’) marker. See the documentation section on Marker (link) for details.
