Concave polygon a convex polygon. As with any simple polygon, the sum of the internal angles of a concave polygon is ("n" − 2) radians, equivalently 180°×("n" − 2), where "n" is the number of sides. It is always possible to partition a concave polygon into a set of convex polygons. A polynomial-time algorithm for finding a decomposition into as few convex polygons as possible is described by . A triangle can never be concave, but there exist concave polygons with "n" sides for any "n" > 3. An example of a concave quadrilateral is the dart. At least one interior angle
Refracting telescope principles. The combination of an objective lens 1 and some type of eyepiece 2 is used to gather more light than the human eye is able to collect on its own, focus it 5, and present the viewer with a brighter, clearer, and magnified virtual image 6. The objective in a refracting telescope refracts or bends light. This refraction causes parallel light rays to converge at a focal point; while those not parallel converge upon a focal plane. The telescope converts a bundle of parallel rays to make an angle α, with the optical axis to a second parallel bundle
