Rectangles Circumscribing a Quadrangle,

Forum Geometricorum, 18 (2018) 161—184.

 

Abstract. In this article we study the  circumscribed rectangles about a quadrangle and in particular their  extrema with respect to the area. We show that there are two  such extrema  represented by two similar rectangles. In addition we study the four similarities interchanging these extremal rectangles and show the existence of  two twin quadrangles with given extremal rectangles.
