A simple polygon is called convex if it has no internal angles greater than 180°; otherwise it is called concave.
If this is right Jo can it go to the Oldies Club please

Convex - a straight line drawn through a convex polygon crosses at most two sides. Every interior angle is less than 180°. Concave - you can draw at least one straight line through a concave polygon that crosses more than two sides. At least one interior angle is more than 180°.
just incase, dotty dogs for all dalmatian rescue ;D

In that case, Jo, I shall away up the road to the Laundrette in the morning and put my 50p in the Ty Hafen charity box there. (Ty Hafen is a local respite care centre for terminally ill children.) Yes, I agree re. the logistics and dogs/cats - but algebra and geometry both confuse this rightie!

Very nearly Viv!
Think there may be a "typo" in the middle somewhere?
