Overview

Complex Polygons: Concave vs Convex Polygons

What You'll Learn

Identify a convex polygon by checking that every interior angle is less than 180 degrees

Recognize a concave polygon by spotting at least one reflex angle greater than 180 degrees

Compare concave pentagons, hexagons, and octagons using the same reflex-angle test regardless of side count

Apply triangle decomposition to calculate the area of an irregular or concave polygon

Subtract the area of a reflex notch when a diagonal of a concave shape falls outside the figure

Calculate total area by summing or subtracting the areas of simple shapes that make up a complex polygon
