Convex Quadrilateral
Convex quadrilateral: A quadrilateral is called a convex quadrilateral, if the line segment joining any two vertices of the quadrilateral is in the same region.
In figure, ABCD is a convex quadrilateral because AB, BC, CD, DA, AC, BD are in the same region of the quadrilateral.
In a convex quadrilateral each angle measures less than 180°.
Concave quadrilateral: A quadrilateral is called a concave quadrilateral, if at least one line segment joining the vertices is not a part of the same region of the quadrilateral.
