For two polygons P and Q having n and m vertices each, the brute force algorithm takes O(nm). Toussaint constructed a O(n+m) algorithm.
They are convex polyhedra. composed of at most two types of polygons..

a quadrilateral isa polygon with four sides and four vertices. Sometimes the word quadrangle is used. The interior angles add up to 360 degrees. Quadrilaterals are either simple (not self- intersecting) or complex (self-intersecting). Quadrilaterals and polygons in general, are broadly divided into two groups: convex and concave polygon.
I believe it means two or more polygons that share a same point.

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.
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.
Yes, a convex shape curves outward. In geometry, a shape is considered convex if, for any two points within the shape, the line segment connecting them lies entirely within the shape. This property ensures that a convex shape does not have any indentations or "inward" curves. Examples of convex shapes include circles, ellipses, and regular polygons.
Two lines in two intersecting planes can be parallel, intersecting, or skew.
I will prove a more general theorem from which your answer follows immediately. Theorem: The intersection of any number (including 2) of convex polygons is convex.ProofLet C be the intersection of Ci which is a set of iconvex polygons. By definition of intersection, if two points A and B belong to C then they belong to every one of the Ci . But the convexity of each of the Ci tells us that line segment AB is contained in Ci . Therefore, the line segment AB is in C and because ABwas arbitrary we conclude that C is convex
Having all internal angles below 180 degrees * * * * * That only applies to polygons or polyhedra. You can have convex solids that are curved and have no angles. A convex shape is one in which, if you take any two points on the surface of the shape or inside it, then the whole of the straight line joining those two points is on the surface of the shape of inside it.
It is a 5 sided shape with the properties that any line segment between two vertices of the pentagon remain in the boundaries of that pentagon. It generalizes to polygons.
