  2. Euler's quadrilateral theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_quadrilateral_theorem

    If the quadrilateral is a parallelogram, then the midpoints of the diagonals coincide so that the connecting line segment has length 0. In addition the parallel sides are of equal length, hence Euler's theorem reduces to + = + which is the parallelogram law.

  3. Varignon's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varignon's_theorem

    An arbitrary quadrilateral and its diagonals. Bases of similar triangles are parallel to the blue diagonal. Ditto for the red diagonal. The base pairs form a parallelogram with half the area of the quadrilateral, A q, as the sum of the areas of the four large triangles, A l is 2 A q (each of the two pairs reconstructs the quadrilateral) while that of the small triangles, A s is a quarter of A ...

  4. Orthodiagonal quadrilateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodiagonal_quadrilateral

    Additionally, the four midpoints (grey) and the four feet of the maltitudes (red) are cocyclic on the 8-point-circle. A convex quadrilateral is orthodiagonal if and only if its Varignon parallelogram (whose vertices are the midpoints of its sides) is a rectangle. [6]

  5. Newton's theorem (quadrilateral) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_theorem...

    Given such a configuration the point P is located on the Newton line, that is line EF connecting the midpoints of the diagonals. [1] A tangential quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides is a rhombus. In this case, both midpoints and the center of the incircle coincide, and by definition, no Newton line exists.

  6. Parallelogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelogram

    The base pairs form a parallelogram with half the area of the quadrilateral, A q, as the sum of the areas of the four large triangles, A l is 2 A q (each of the two pairs reconstructs the quadrilateral) while that of the small triangles, A s is a quarter of A l (half linear dimensions yields quarter area), and the area of the parallelogram is A ...

  7. Newton–Gauss line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton–Gauss_line

    In geometry, the Newton–Gauss line (or Gauss–Newton line) is the line joining the midpoints of the three diagonals of a complete quadrilateral.. The midpoints of the two diagonals of a convex quadrilateral with at most two parallel sides are distinct and thus determine a line, the Newton line.

  8. Newton line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_line

    E, K, F lie on a common line, the Newton line Not to be confused with Newton-Gauss line or Isaac Newton line . In Euclidean geometry the Newton line is the line that connects the midpoints of the two diagonals in a convex quadrilateral with at most two parallel sides.

  9. Midpoint polygon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midpoint_polygon

    In geometry, the midpoint polygon of a polygon P is the polygon whose vertices are the midpoints of the edges of P. [1] [2] It is sometimes called the Kasner polygon after Edward Kasner, who termed it the inscribed polygon "for brevity". [3] [4] The medial triangle The Varignon parallelogram
