In this paper diagonals of various orders in a (strict) convex polygon Pn are considered. The sums of lengths of diagonals of the same order are studied. A relationship between the number of consecutive diagonals which do not intersect a given maximal diagonal and lie on one side of it and the order of the smallest diagonal among them is established. Finally a new proof of a conjecture of P. Erdos, considered already in [1], is given.
