A quadrilateral in which a pair of opposite sides have the same length and are inclined at to each other (or equivalently, satisfy
). Some interesting theorems
hold for such quadrilaterals. Let
be an equilic quadrilateral with
and
. Then
1. The midpoints ,
, and
of the diagonals and the side
always determine an equilateral
triangle.
2. If equilateral triangle is drawn outwardly on
, then
is also an equilateral
triangle.
3. If equilateral triangles are drawn on ,
,
and
away from
,
then the three new graph vertices
,
, and
are collinear.
