Bicentric Polygon

A Polygon which has both a Circumcircle (which touches each vertex) and an Incircle (which is tangentto each side). All Triangles are bicentric with

where is the Circumradius, is the Inradius, and is the separation of centers. In 1798, N. Fusscharacterized bicentric Polygons of , 5, 6, 7, and 8 sides. For bicentricQuadrilaterals (Fuss's Problem), the Circles satisfy

(Dörrie 1965) and

(Beyer 1987). In addition,

The Area of a bicentric quadrilateral is
(7)

If the circles permit successive tangents around the Incircle which close the Polygon for one startingpoint on the Circumcircle, then they do so for all points on the Circumcircle.
