We characterize strongly convex flats and halfspaces, and establish the strong convexity of the affine hull of a strongly convex set. We then show that, for every point in the boundary of a strongly convex set, there is a supporting strongly convex hyperplane through it. Finally, we show that a closed set with nonempty interior is strongly convex if and only if it is the intersection of strongly convex halfspaces; we state a condition under which this result extends to sets with empty interior.
