What is a circumscribed polygon?

A circumscribed polygon is a polygon all of whose vertices are on the circumference of a circle. The circle is called the circumscribing circle and the radius of the circle is the circumradius of the polygon.


What is a polygon his vertices are on a circle and who's other points are inside the circle?

A polygon whose vertices are on a circle and whose other points are inside the circle is called a "cyclic polygon." The circle is known as the circumcircle of the polygon, and all the vertices lie on its circumference. In addition to the vertices, the polygon may have additional points that are located within the circle, but those points do not change the cyclic nature of the polygon. Examples include triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons as long as their vertices are on the circle.


What is a polygon whose vertices lie on a circle?

A polygon which has a circumscribed circle is called a cyclic polygon.All regular simple polygons, all triangles and all rectangles are cyclic.


What is the name of a circle that lies outside of the triangle and passes through all vertices of the triangle?

The triangle that has all three vertices touching the circle is called an 'inscribed triangle.' The circle has no special name, only the polygon inscribed.


What is a polygon within a circle?

If you mean that all the vertices of the polygon touch the circle, it is called an inscribed polygon.You might also be thinking of a cyclic quadrilateral:see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_quadrilateral.


How is the inscribed circle and circumscribed circle alike?

The inscribed circle and circumscribed circle of a polygon are alike in that both are defined relative to the polygon's vertices and sides. The inscribed circle, or incircle, touches each side of the polygon at one point, while the circumscribed circle, or circumcircle, passes through all the vertices. Both circles are essential in understanding the geometric properties of the polygon and are centered around the same point in regular polygons. Additionally, they are crucial for calculating various measurements, such as area and radius.
