caption_attribution_description: English: A set of inscribed rectangles whose sides are parallel to the diagonals of the quadrilateral
context_page_description: In Euclidean geometry, an orthodiagonal quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in which the diagonals cross at right angles. In other words, it is a four-sided figure in which the line segments between non-adjacent vertices are orthogonal to each other.
context_section_description: For every orthodiagonal quadrilateral, we can inscribe two infinite sets of rectangles:
  (i) a set of rectangles whose sides are parallel to the diagonals of the quadrilateral
  (ii) a set of rectangles defined by Pascal-points circles.
