How to identify a face is circle using it's vertices [closed]
$begingroup$
Is there a way to identify whether a face is of circular shape and it's center?. All I have is the face and it's vertices.

Are you asking, given the numerical coordinates of some points in the plane, how do you tell if they lie on a circle? If so, are you concerned about numerical imprecision?

Three non-aligned points are enough to unambiguously define a circle. You find the center as the intersection of two mediatrices. http://www.manufacturinget.org/2011/07/construct-circle-through-three-points/
When you have the center, you can check that all points are at the same distance from it.

This condition will identify a square face too as circle?

Given a list of $(x_i,y_i)$ pairs, representing points in the plain, see if you can predict $x_i^2+y_i^2$ with an affine function of $(x_i,y_i)$, by, say, least squares. If your points lie exactly on a circle, the residual sum of squares should equal 0.
