Properties of Parabola-Inscribed Poncelet Polygons
KoG (KoG), 2021
Abstract
We investigate properties of Poncelet -gon families inscribed in a parabola and circumscribing a focus-centered circle. These can be regarded as the polar images of a bicentric family with respect to the circumcircle, such that the bicentric incircle contains the circumcenter. We derive closure conditions for several and describe curious Euclidean properties such as straight line, circular, and point, loci, as well as a (perhaps new) conserved quantity.
