Usign Vector drawable you can achieved your shape like below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:width="100dp"
    android:height="100dp"
    android:viewportHeight="100"
    android:viewportWidth="100">
    <group android:name="triableGroup">
        <path
            android:name="triangle"
            android:fillColor="@color/color_start_color_back"
            android:pathData="m 50,0 l 50,50 -100,0 z" />
    </group>
</vector>
