Solution

Define the convex polyhedrons.

A convex polyhedron can be defined as a polyhedron for which a line connecting any two non-coplanar points on the surface always lies in the interior of the polyhedron.

A convex polyhedron is also known as platonic solids or convex polygons. The properties of this shape are:

  • All the faces of a convex polyhedron are regular and congruent.
  • Convex polyhedrons are 3D shapes with polygonal faces that are similar in form, height, angles, and edges.
  • In a convex polyhedron, all the interior angles are less than 180º

Examples of convex polyhedron are:
