| Hi, you may actually want the polygons to be regular, not just equilateral. For example, take a rhombus. If a circle is to circumscribe a rhombus so that all vertices of it are touching the circle, you would need the rhombus to be a square. |

Ah yes, good point (no pun intended). I'm adding "regular" |
