    ['x' => 40, 'y' => 150],
    ['x' => 480, 'y' => 150],
    ['x' => 110, 'y' => 75],
]);

// Use of drawimage function

// Display the output image
header("Content-Type: image/png");
echo $gmagick->getImageBlob();
?>

Output:

Program 2: Drawing from scratch

<?php

// Create a new Gmagick object
$gmagick = new Gmagick('geeksforgeeks.png');

// Create a GmagickDraw object

// Create a polygonline
$draw->polyline([
    ['x' => 400, 'y' => 0],
    ['x' => 40, 'y' => 170],
    ['x' => 480, 'y' => 150],
    ['x' => 110, 'y' => 5],
]);

// Use of drawimage function
