What is the circumcenter of a triangle?
Circumcenter - the center of the circle that circumscribes the triangle, ie. goes through all its vertices.
How is an apothem different from a radius?
An apothem is a line drawn perpendicular to a side of a regular polygon from the center of the polygon. A polygon is not a circle so it cannot have a radius. The radius of a circle is drawn from the center to any point in the circumference of the circle. You can draw a circle which encloses the regular polygon touching all vertices. The polygon is said to be inscribed in the circle. The apothem will be less than the radius because the radius is not perpendicular to any side, it can be drawn to a vertex but the apothem is perpendicular to a side, so it is shorter. Ex: draw a square with a circle which inscribes it. You can see that the apothem will be less than the radius.
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.
What is a true statement about a circle inscribed in a regular polygon?
The circle has a smaller area than the polygon.

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.
