Extract

In this article I review some of the more advanced results concerning cyclic quadrilaterals, including a number that are new to me and possibly, therefore, to readers. Proofs of theorems are not given, but I give a clear indication of the methods I have used to verify them. The Cabri software package has been used to indicate the correctness of each result. In certain cases the coordinate geometry involved is so complex that Derive had to be used in the proofs. One of the results I have been unable to prove, and this is therefore labelled as a conjecture, though the accuracy of Cabri, which allows figures to be dragged around, is such that we may be confident that it is true.
