Is a star convex or concave?

A star shape can be classified as convex or concave depending on its specific design. A convex star, like a typical five-pointed star, has all its interior angles less than 180 degrees, meaning that any line segment drawn between two points inside the star will lie entirely within it. In contrast, a concave star has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees, resulting in indentations that create "inward" points. Thus, whether a star is convex or concave depends on its geometric properties.


What is a concave polygon with at least 3 lines of symmetry?

A regular six pointed star.


Why is a star polygon concave?

because the point of origin would be on an outer point and around it the walls seem to cave in making it seem concave, in comparison to a regular polygon. When checking for concave polygons always compare what you are looking at to a regular polygon

What is a quadrilateral that is not a convex?

The Star Trek logo, if made into straight lines, would be a concave quadrilateral. Simply draw a triangle. Now, at any point along the sides, make a new point and move it inward and it will be a concave quadrilateral.


What is the opposite of Convex?
