Uhm... no they're not.

Pentagrams are five pointed stars, when used in [insert variant spelling
of magic of your choice here] they're typically drawn within circles,
but then they're known as pentagrams-drawn-inside-a-circle.

And even if they're not, and I happen to be wrong (gee.. that could
never happen :) then just because I can't be bothered to draw the extra
bits around them.... doesn't mean that someone else won't..

pentagram inside a pentagon:
             _._
         _,-'/\ '-._
    _,.-'   /  \    `-.._
 .'________/____\________'.
 :'-.     /      \     ,-':
 :   '-, /        \ ,-'   :
 :      /-.      ,-\     ,:
 `:    /   '-,.-'   \    :
  :.  /    ,-''-.    \  .:
  `: /  ,-'      '-.  \ :
   :/,-'            '-.\:
   `'-................-''

pentagram inside a circle:
             ____
        _,--' /\ `--._
    _,-'     /  \     `-._
  .'________/____\________'.
 : '-.     /      \     ,-'`:
:     '-, /        \ ,-'     :
:        /-.      ,-\        :
:       /   '-,.-'   \       :
:      /    ,-''-.    \      :
 :    /  ,-'      '-.  \    :
  `. /,-'            '-.\ .'
    `._                _,' 
       `--.________,--'


Better now? :)
