[Edit] 
A convex polygon is a polyhedron or a dimensional figure. The four lower planes of the lower universe are multi-dimensional having five solids (Plato's tetrahedron, hexahedron (cube), octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron or polyhedra - no plural term for polygon except "polygons" which is Latin incorrect - should be "polyga") in the first three dimensions, i.e., point (o-dimension - not ironically a dimension), line (first dimension), polygon (second dimension as an enclosed geometric figure, e.g., triangle, cube, rhombus, etc.), a convex polygon or polyhedron (third dimension). Six solids exist in the fourth dimension if time can be considered a solid (perhaps we mean a watch or clock). The fifth dimension and higher have only three solids. However, a problem exists where in three dimensional space a free licence exists to create polyhedra (polychora are fourth dimensional solids - singular "polychoron (ch)") and yet Alicia Boole's polytope generalizes but does not define as space or the substrate area for creation. Time measures duration, but does not declare a space. Perhaps "space" will do wherever that is?
