How i change cone direction and how i verify if a 3D point is inside of cone?

Hello! I have the follow cone code:

r = 112.0;
h = 100.0;
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);
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

Hello , use 'rotate' function after 'surf', the created shape will be rotated according to plane , direction n specific points . follow this link - http://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/rotate.html

good luck
