What is each line segment of a polygon called?
A line segment joining two adjacent vertices of a polygon is called an edge or a side. A line segment joining two non-adjacent vertices is called a diagonal.
What is a segment joining one vertex to another inside a polygon?
it is a diameter.
What is the name of any segment joining nonconsecutive vertices of a polygon?
diagonal
What is the definition of convex polygon?
a polygon in which any line segment connecting two points of the polygon has no part outside the polygon.
A line segment drawn from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side of the polygon?
apothem

What is the name of any segment joining nonconsecutive vertices of a polygon?

What is a name of any segment joining non consicutive vertices of a polygon?
A diagonal.
Segment nonadjacent vertices of a polygon?
Placing a question mark at the end of a phrase does not make it a sensible question. Try to use a whole sentence to describe what it is that you want answered.
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.
Can a figure be a polygon?
A polygon is a closed figure made by joining line segments, where each line segment intersects exactly two others. Many figures are polygons, but take any polygon and remove and edge and you have a figure that is not a polygon. So the anwer is yet it can.
A line segment that joins two vertices of a polygon but is not a side of the polygon?
………………………… is a line segment that joins two vertexof a polygon but is not a side of the polygon.
What is the sum of the angle measures in a 20 sided polygon?
The answer is 324 degrees. The general formula is (n-2)*180 degrees, where n=number of sides/vertices(both are same). But this is valid only for convex polygon (every internal angle is strictly less than 180 degrees & every line segment between two nonadjacent vertices of the polygon is strictly interior to the polygon except at its endpoints)
What is a mid-segment?
A segment that connects two midpoints of a polygon.
Which polygon has no segment connecting two vertices lies outside the polygon?
A convex polygon.
What is a convex heptagon?
No. Convex simply means that if you have a straight line segment joining any two points in (or on) a convex shape, then every point on that line segment in inside or on the shape. A convex shape can have 2 or more dimensions, it can by a polygon or have curved sides.
