This document provides diagrams of cyclic quadrilaterals and asks the reader to prove that the product of the diagonals of any cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the product of the sides that are opposite each other. It gives several examples of cyclic quadrilaterals with missing lengths and asks the reader to apply their proven theorem to find the missing values.

Previously, we conjectured that if we had a cyclic quadrilateral, we saw that (a)(c)=(b)
(d). What we want you to do is prove that this is true for any cyclic quadrilateral. Below we will put a number of different diagrams of cyclic quadrilaterals that you can use to figure your proof out.
