A convex polygon is one with no reflex angles (angles that measure more than 180 degrees when viewed from inside the polygon).
More generally a convex set is on where a straight line between any two points in the set lies completely within the set.

What are non convex polygons?
A non-convex polygon is any polygon with at least one interior angle measuring at least 180 degrees. . A polygon is defined as an area enclosed by 3 or more line segments connected at their endpoints. Basically, the figure needs to be completely closed in, have no extra lines or part of lines coming out of it, and no curves. For a polygon to be convex all of its interior angles need to measure less than 180 degrees. =D
How many polygons are there?

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.
