Abstract

All isosceles trapezia are cyclic, that is, they all have circumcircles. The circumcentre could be inside, on or outside the figure. If it is on the figure, it must coincide with the midpoint of the longer of the parallel sides (generally considered the ‘base’). In any case, the circumcentre must lie on the line of symmetry of the figure.
