Problem
For how many of the following types of quadrilaterals does there exist a point in the plane of the quadrilateral that is equidistant from all four vertices of the quadrilateral?
- a square
- a rectangle that is not a square
- a rhombus that is not a square
- a parallelogram that is not a rectangle or a rhombus
- an isosceles trapezoid that is not a parallelogram
Solution
This question is simply asking how many of the listed quadrilaterals are cyclic. A square, a rectangle, and an isosceles trapezoid (that isn't a parallelogram) are all cyclic, and the other two are not. Thus, the answer is
