Tangential quadrilateral all of whose sides are tangent to a single conic section has three diagonals that meet at a point. From a tangential quadrilateral, one can form a hexagon with two 180° angles, by placing two new vertices at two opposite points of tangency; all six of the sides of this hexagon lie on lines tangent to the inscribed circle, so its diagonals meet at a point. But two of these diagonals are the same as the diagonals of the tangential quadrilateral, and the third diagonal of the hexagon is the line through two opposite points of tangency.

Corresponding sides and corresponding angles Corresponding sides and corresponding angles In geometry, the tests for congruence and similarity involve comparing corresponding sides and corresponding angles of polygons. In these tests, each side and each angle in one polygon is paired with a side or angle in the second polygon, taking care to preserve the order of adjacency. For example, if one polygon has sequential sides "a", "b", "c", "d", and "e" and the other has sequential sides "v", "w", "x", "y", and "z", and if "b" and "w" are corresponding sides, then side "a" (adjacent to "b") must correspond to either "v" or "x" (both
