In geometry, Brahmagupta's theorem states that if a cyclic quadrilateral is orthodiagonal (that is, has perpendicular diagonals), then the perpendicular to a side from the point of intersection of the diagonals always bisects the opposite side. [1] It is named after the Indian mathematician Brahmagupta (598-668). [2]
The kites are exactly the orthodiagonal quadrilaterals that contain a circle tangent to all four of their sides; that is, the kites are the tangential orthodiagonal quadrilaterals. [1] A rhombus is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides (that is, an orthodiagonal quadrilateral that is also a parallelogram).
If a cyclic quadrilateral is also orthodiagonal, the distance from the circumcenter to any side equals half the length of the opposite side. [23] In a cyclic orthodiagonal quadrilateral, the distance between the midpoints of the diagonals equals the distance between the circumcenter and the point where the diagonals intersect. [23]
As is true more generally for any orthodiagonal quadrilateral, the area of a kite may be calculated as half the product of the lengths of the diagonals and : [10] =. Alternatively, the area can be calculated by dividing the kite into two congruent triangles and applying the SAS formula for their area.
It is a type of cyclic quadrilateral. Harmonic quadrilateral: a cyclic quadrilateral such that the products of the lengths of the opposing sides are equal. Bicentric quadrilateral: it is both tangential and cyclic. Orthodiagonal quadrilateral: the diagonals cross at right angles. Equidiagonal quadrilateral: the diagonals are of equal length.

In Euclidean geometry, a harmonic quadrilateral, or harmonic quadrangle, [1] is a quadrilateral that can be inscribed in a circle (cyclic quadrilateral) in which the products of the lengths of opposite sides are equal. It has several important properties.
