It is a regular polygon as for example an equilateral triangle
A polygon which has a circumscribed circle is called a cyclic polygon.All regular simple polygons, all triangles and all rectangles are cyclic.
You can dertimine a number of vertices a polygon has by counting all the dots around the shape
the center

It takes an infinite number of sides to make a polygon into a circle, but you could still consider a circle to be a limiting state of the polygon, which all polygons approach as the number of sides increase.

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.
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.

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.
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.
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.

the point that is equidistant from all vertices of a polygon.
All triangles have 3 sides and 3 vertices
