No, a circle is not a regular polygon because it is not even a polygon.
A polygon must have at least 3 sides and 3 angles (a circle has 1 side and has 0 angles), it has to be a closed shape, and it cannot have curved lines (circles are curved). Therefore, a circle is not a polygon. You *might* think that a circle is just made up of a gazillion squares, but no. It's simply just a curved shape.

Is a circle a regular shape or non regular shape?
A circle is non-polygon. Meaning it has a curved side. A circle has no sides. It is non-regular.
What kind of polygon has all vertices lie on a circle?
It is a regular polygon as for example an equilateral triangle
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 do you call a 1000000000000 sided polygon?
There is no name given to it. (As the number of sides increases, the upper limit of a regular polygon is a circle.)
A circle inside a polygon where each side of the polygon is tangent to the circle?
the circle is inscribed in the polygon
A polygon within a circle all of whose vertices are on the circle is a?
A regular polygon
A polygon within a circle all of whose vertices are on the circle is an?
A regular polygon
How do you find out if the polygon of a circle is regular or not?
I assume you mean a polygon inscribed in a circle. It is regular if all its sides and angles are equal.
Is the circle a REGULAR or irregular shape?
The circle is an irregular shape because all of it is curved. * * * * * No. A circle is a regular shape. It is not a polygon and so cannot be a regular polygon but that does not prevent it from being a regular shape.
What is a true statement about a circle inscribed in a regular polygon?
The circle has a smaller area than the polygon.
Is a semi circle a regular polygon?
No because a regular polygon has equal sides and equal interior angles
Is a circle a regular shape or non regular shape?
A circle is non-polygon. Meaning it has a curved side. A circle has no sides. It is non-regular.
What is circumscribed area and inscribed area of regular polygon?
circumscribed means the polygon is drawn around a circle, and inscribed means the polygon is drawn inside the circle. See related links below for polygon circumscribed about a circle and polygon inscribed in a circle.
What kind of polygon has all vertices lie on a circle?
It is a regular polygon as for example an equilateral triangle
Are all circles regular polygons?
A circle is not a polygon, so no.
What is the name of a smooth curved line around the outside of a regular polygon everywhere equidistant from the center?
what is the name of a smooth curved line around the outside of a regular polygon
What does this mean when a circle is inscribed in a regular polygon?
Nothing particular. One of the properties of regular polygons - however many sides - is that it can have a circle inscribed in it.
