The circumference of a circle is its boundary - it is a perimeter and therefore is a linear measure. Whether it is a smooth curve, as in the case of a circle, or a set of line segments meeting at vertices is irrelevant to its being linear.
To prove that three points are colinear, pick two points and form the equation of the line they describe, and then see if the third point lies on that line.
I'm not sure whether you are asking what convex means, or to prove that all circles are convex. A shape is convex if all pairs of points within it (i.e., the interior, not just the boundary) have all points between them within the shape. That is, if you draw the straight line segment between 2 points on or within a circle, all points of that line segment are within the circle. To prove that, you could use Euclid's axioms of geometry, or analytic geometry, which deals with the coordinates of points and the equations they satisfy. I will leave the proof as an exercise, since it is rather involved (but not necessarily advanced) and I don't know if that is what you are asking for anyway!

Here is one way to prove it. It is easier if the decagon is convex but the proof is valid even if not.Take any point P in the plane. Again, it is easier if this point is inside the decagon but the proof is valid even if it is not.Join all the vertices of the decagon to this point. So now you have ten triangles with a common vertex P.The angles of these ten triangles form the internal angles of the decagon plus all the angles around P.So the sum of the internal angles of the decagon is equal to the sum of the internal angles of all ten triangles with P as their common vertex minus the 360 degrees worth of angles at P itself.The sum of the interior angles of each triangle is 180 degrees so the sum of ten triangles with common vertex P is 180*10 = 1800 degrees.So the internal angles of the decagon add to 1800 - 360 = 1440 degrees.

That is the definition of a closed set.
Suppose that the parallelogram is a rhombus (a parallelogram with equal sides). If we draw the diagonals, isosceles triangles are formed (where the median is also an angle bisector and perpendicular to the base). Since the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, and the diagonals don't bisect the vertex angles where they are drawn, then the parallelogram is not a rhombus.
The prove is the determination of these melting points.

First make sure you understand that concyclic simply means the points lie on a common circle. We are not told it is a regular pentagon but we will assume it is. We could create pentagons that are not even convex and would not be concyclic.Let's start with a regular pentagon. You can split it up into 5 congruent triangles with the points meeting at the middle. Any side of one of these triangle is connected from each of the vertices of the pentagon to the center of the pentagon. Since all 5 triangles are congruent, this distance must be the same for each of the vertices. So, we see that each of the vertices is equidistant from a given point. Now if we drew a circle centered at that point with a radius equal to the distance between the point and any vertex, that circle would pass through all 5 vertices. Therefore any four ( really all 5), vertices of a regular pentagon are concyclic.A nice proof would use Ptolemy's theorem. I will place a line to an answers.com page that helps with that.Another solution:The pentagon has to be regular. Otherwise, the question is impossible to prove.Consider a regular polygon ABCDE.Take triangles BCD & ECDBC=ED (sides of a regular polygon are equal)CD=CD (common side)
There is no such shape. If anyone can prove otherwise, I'd be grateful if they'd let me know.
Simply by measuring it. Or by drawing a circle with a radius of half the hypotenuse and having the vertex of the right angle as its centre and if the midpoint of the hypotenuse just touches the circle then this proves it.
