A bicentric quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in the circle k_1(O_1; R) and circumscribes the circle k_2(O_2; r). How to construct it in GeoGebra?

I don't want the quadrilateral to be a rectangle.

per ottenere un quadrato inscritto in un cerchio di raggio R >>> l=R/sqrt(2) (l=lato del quadrato)

to obtain a square inscribed in a circle of radius R >>> l = R / sqrt (2) (l = side of the square)1a76350441fd345b8904cabcab1a9c93

en la practica dados dos circulos es imposible encontrar tal cuadrilatero; dado un circulo sí es posible encontrar otro circulo para el cual existe el cuadrilatero


en el adjunto mueve E and or D until distance=0

esto es solo una aproximacion numerica que te dara idea de la gran dificultad de la cuestion

dados dos circulos que tienen un cuadrilatero bicentrico entonces hay infinitos cuadrilateros para esos circulos ; por lo tanto si es posible sirve cualquiera y si no es posible no se encontrará

dado un circulo se puede construir otro circulo donde los cuadrilateros ciclicos son bicentricos

Here's a solution for a general polygon from 2015 :)

As mathmagic says - once you have two correct circles then it's easy

  • start with a point on the outer circle
  • construct the tangent to the inner circle
  • intersect with the outer circle
  • repeat another 3 times

Interestingly this one is much easier to construct than the others as you can just use the "Conic through 5 points" Tool https://www.geogebra.org/m/mkW2vCez
