Let be a quadrilateral with perpendicular polygon diagonals. The midpoints of the sides (, , , and ) determine a parallelogram (the Varignon parallelogram) with sides parallel to the polygon diagonals. The eight-point circle passes through the four midpoints and the four feet of the perpendiculars from the opposite sides , , , and .
