Solution

Identify the shape

A curve made entirely of line segments is called a polygon.

A concave polygon is a polygon that has at least one exterior angle less than 180°

A convex polygon is a polygon that exterior angles are greater than 180°.

Since C and F are less than 180°, the figure is concave.

Hence, another name for this shape is concave polygon.
