Yes it is. It is surely a polygon and convex means all interior angles are less than a straight angle ( i.e.180 degrees).

Differentiate convex polygon from non convex polygon?

A polygon is convex if it has no two points that can be used to define a line segment that falls outside of that polygon. Another way to put it is: a convex polygon has all vertices pointing 'out'. Consider the following 6-sided polygon: _ ' | |_ |__| Well you get the idea. The 'notch' cut out of the square turns the square into a six sided figure now, with the 'corner' in the upper right pointing 'in' so the polygon is not convex.


A square is an example of a quadrilateral that is both a regular concave polygon and a regular convex polygon?

No. There can be no regular concave polygon.


Which term describes a polygon with no dents in it?

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.


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.

Differentiate convex and non convex polygon?

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.


Is a semicircle a convex polygon?

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


Is the sum of interior angles of a convex polygon the same as a non convex polygon?

Yes, the angle sums will be the same regardless of whether or not it is a convex 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.


A polygon that is not convex?

Is a concave polygon.
