Is the sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon the same as a non-convex polygon?
No. In a convex polygon the sum of the interior angles is (n-2)*180 deg where n is the number of interior angles. In a non-convex polygon this is not necessarily true.
What is a definition for non convex polygon?
A simple polygon that is not convex is called concave, non-convex or reentrant. A concave polygon will always have an interior angle with a measure that is greater than 180 degrees.
How do you determine whether a polygon is convex or non-convex?
No interior angle of a convex polygon can exceed 180 degrees. A non-convex polygon has at least one reflex angle (> 180 degrees). Alternatively, a polygon is convex if, given any two points on or inside the polygon, the straight line joining the two points must lie wholly on or inside the polygon. In a non-convex polygon, it is possible to find a pair of points such that the straight line joining them lies outside the polygon for at least some of its length.
What is the difference between a concave polygon and a convex polygon?
Any polygon that has an angle that is > 180º is a concave polygon. A convex polygon does not. e.g. All regular polygons are convex.
What does a non convex polygon look like?
A non convex polygon would have an exterior angle less than 90 degrees making it look concave at that vertex.
Differentiate convex and non convex polygon?
A convex polygon is one with no angle greater than 180 degrees. A non-convex polygon is one that is not without such an angle.
What is the difference between convex polygon and non convex polygon?
A polygon is convex if you can take any two points inside the polygon and connect them with a line segment that is completely contained by the polygon. A non-convex polygon is one which contains at least two points such that the line joining them does not lie entirely inside the polygon.
Is the sum of the interior angles of a convex polygon the same as a non-convex polygon?
No. In a convex polygon the sum of the interior angles is (n-2)*180 deg where n is the number of interior angles. In a non-convex polygon this is not necessarily true.
Is the sum of interior angles of a convex polygon the same as a non convex polygon?
Yes, the angle sums will be the same regardless of whether or not it is a convex polygon.
What is a definition for non convex polygon?
A simple polygon that is not convex is called concave, non-convex or reentrant. A concave polygon will always have an interior angle with a measure that is greater than 180 degrees.

Which term describes a polygon with no dents in it?
A convex polygon.I suspect that what you mean is a convex polygon.
What is the difference between a concave polygon and a convex polygon?
Any polygon that has an angle that is > 180º is a concave polygon. A convex polygon does not. e.g. All regular polygons are convex.
Differentiate convex polygon from non convex polygon?
A polygon is convex if it has no two points that can be used to define a line segment that falls outside of that polygon. Another way to put it is: a convex polygon has all vertices pointing 'out'. Consider the following 6-sided polygon: _ ' | |_ |__| Well you get the idea. The 'notch' cut out of the square turns the square into a six sided figure now, with the 'corner' in the upper right pointing 'in' so the polygon is not convex.
What does a non convex polygon look like?
A non convex polygon would have an exterior angle less than 90 degrees making it look concave at that vertex.
Is the following polygon convex or concave?
is this a polygon? is it concaver or convex
What the difference between convex and non convex polygons?
In a non-convex (or concave) polygon, at least one interior angle is a reflex angle. An alternative definition is that if you take any two points inside a conves polygon, the line joining them is wholly inside the polygon.
