The following example creates a Rectangle object and three Point objects, and tests whether
each of the points falls within the boundaries of the rectangle.
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.geom.Point;
var rect:Rectangle = new Rectangle(10, 10, 50, 50);
trace(rect.containsPoint(new Point(10, 10))); // true
trace(rect.containsPoint(new Point(59, 59))); // true
trace(rect.containsPoint(new Point(60, 60))); // false
