Circular.
Explanation:
The term is somewhat self-explanatory-- circular reasoning goes in circles. Essentially, by circular reasoning, A is true because B is true, and B is true because A is true.
(Simplistic) Example:
Jake is awesome.
"How do you know that?"
I know that because he's cool.
"How do you know he's cool?"
I know he's cool because he's awesome.
