Hesse's Theorem

A quadrilateral with this property is called a Hesse quadrilateral.

Otto Hesse
Ludwig Otto Hesse (22 April 1811 – 4 August 1874) was a German mathematician. Hesse was born in Königsberg, Kingdom of Prussia, Prussia, and died in Munich, Kingdom of Bavaria, Bavaria. He worked mainly on algebraic invariants, and geometry. The Hessian matrix, the Hesse normal form, the Hesse configuration, the Hessian group, Hessian pairs, Hesse's theorem, Hesse pencil, and the Hesse transfer principle are named after him. Many of Hesse's research findings were presented for the first time in ''Crelle's Journal'' or Hesse's textbooks.MacTutor History of Mathematics archive and Complete Dictionary of Scientific Biography Life Hesse was born in Königsberg (today Kaliningrad) as the son of Johann Gottlieb Hesse, a businessman and brewery owner and his wife Anna Karoline Reiter (1788–1865).
