Brahmagupta quadrilaterals are lattice quadrilaterals

Susan H. Marshall and Brooke Tortorelli

Vol. 17 (2024), No. 4, 593–602
Abstract

A Brahmagupta quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral with integer side lengths, integer diagonals, and integer area. We show that every Brahmagupta quadrilateral can be placed in the xy-plane so that its vertices have integer coordinates, generalizing a similar result for Heronian triangles (triangles with integer side lengths and integer area).
