  • For a quadrangle P, we consider the centroid $G_0$ of the vertices of P, the perimeter centroid $G_1$ of the edges of P and the centroid $G_2$ of the interior of P, respectively. If $G_0$ is equal to $G_1$ or $G_2$, then the quadrangle P is a parallelogram. We denote by M the intersection point of two diagonals of P. In this note, first of all, we show that if M is equal to $G_0$ or $G_2$, then the quadrangle P is a parallelogram. Next, we investigate various quadrangles whose perimeter centroid coincides with the intersection point M of diagonals. As a result, for an example, we show that among circumscribed quadrangles rhombi are the only ones whose perimeter centroid coincides with the intersection point M of diagonals.
