Brahmagupta's formula (area of a cyclic quadrilateral )

Description

In Euclidean geometry, a cyclic quadrilateral or inscribed quadrilateral is a quadrilateral whose vertices all lie on a single circle. This circle is called the circumcircle or circumscribed circle, and the vertices are said to be concyclic.
The area A of a cyclic quadrilateral with sides a, b, c, d is given by Brahmagupta’s formula.
