Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Drawing Diagonals of regular polygon

[pufik]

Is there a way to use the notation \draw (p.corner /n) -- (p.corner /k) ; in tkiz instead of actually knowing the points?
This is my code. Any help would be appreciated! More specifically im trying to draw diagonals from A_1 to A_8 etc.
\begin{tikzpicture}

\node (p) [draw,rotate=90,minimum size=10cm,regular polygon, regular polygon sides=9] at (0,0) {};

\draw (0,0) circle (5 cm);

\foreach \n [count=\nu from 1, remember=\n as \lastn, evaluate={\nu+\lastn}] in {1,2,...,9}
\node[anchor=\n*(360/9)]at(p.corner \n){$A_{\nu}$};

\foreach \x in {1,2,...,9}
\fill (p.corner \x) circle[radius=1.5 pt];

\end{tikzpicture}

Please create a minimal working example and mark its code so that it can be tested immediately.

If the diagonals are allowed to look the same as the sides of the polygon, then a possible solution can be kept quite simple. My suggestion uses percusse's answer:
