What is an example of convex polygon?

A triangle.


Is a convex polygon always a regular polygon?

No, a scalene triangle, for example, is a convex poygon but it is not regular.


How do you find if a polygon is a rigid plane-shape?

The only convex polygon that is rigid is a triangle.


What is apolygon that is convex?

A convex polygon is defined as a polygon with all its interior angles less than 180°. This means that all the vertices of the polygon will point outwards, away from the interior of the shape. Think of it as a 'bulging' polygon. A triangle (3-gon) is always convex.


Are the interior angles in a polygon equal in measure?

Only when the polygon is a regular convex polygon. Such as an equilateral triangle, or a square, or a regular pentagon.


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 sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a triangle?

360 degrees (this is true with any convex polygon)


What is a convex polygon with all sides congruent and all angles congruent?

A convex polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles is a regular polygon.Some regular pilgrims have specific names: Equilateral triangle and square


What is the sum of the interior angle of a 13-sided polygon?

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 deg. For a convex polygon with n sides we can divide it to n-2 triangles. So the answer, if the polygon is convex, is (13-2)*180= 1980 deg * * * * * The polygon need not be convex. The formula for the sum of the interior angles is valid as long as the polygon is simple - that it, its sides do not cross each other inside the polygon.


What is convex and given an example?

A convex polygon is a polygon such that no side extended cuts any other side or vertex; it can be cut by a straight line in at most two points Example: A square is a convex polygon, as is an eqilateral triangle. A star shaped polygon is NOT convex. More generally, In Euclidean space, objects are convex if for every pair of points within the object, every point on the straight line segment that joins them is also within the object.


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.


Is the following polygon convex or concave?

is this a polygon? is it concaver or convex
