If, for any two points A and B in the polygon, all points with position A + kB are inside the polygon for 0 ≤ k ≤ 1, then the polygon is convex. In simple terms, if all points on the line AB lie inside the polygon, it is convex. If there is at least one point on AB that is outside the polygon then it is not a convex polygon.
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.
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 this a polygon? is it concaver or convex

Yes, the angle sums will be the same regardless of whether or not it is a convex polygon.
A convex polygon.I suspect that what you mean is a convex polygon.

a polygon is convex
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.
It is convex if you look at it from the inside but it is not any kind of polygon.
Is a concave polygon.
A 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.
