What are the five differences between inscribed and circumscribed?
I can only think of one myself, it explains the gist of the question. In my experience, INSCRIBED shapes or figures lie INSIDE of something else; while CIRCUMSCRIBED figures are the OUTSIDE shape in the same instance.
As they are interchangable depending on which of the shape(s) you're discussing, it is also not necessary (though often assumed) that one of the shapes be a circle.
Earthy, brown. It depends on what the cobblestone was made of.

Why is concrete a good insulator?
Concrete is not a good insulator. Concrete has a high thermal mass, which means it can store and release a lot of thermal energy (heat). This property is sometimes mistaken for insulation because it can be used to delay the transmission of thermal energy. The amount of delay is proportional to the thickness of the concrete. An example of this is the use of thick concrete walls to store thermal energy during a hot day and release it during the cooler night. For a delay of this length (half a day) the thickness of the concrete wall needs to be between 150-200mm.
