The excenters of bicentric polygons are concyclic

Abstract

We show that the centers of the excircles of a bicentric polygon B are concyclic on a circle E. The center of the circumscribed circle K of B is the midpoint of the center of E and the center of the inscribed circle C of B. The radius of E is given by a simple formula in terms of the radii of C and K and the distance between their centers.
