ABCD is the rhombus with

The diagonals cut at O at right angle.
Take OC as the axis of x and OD as the axis of y.
Given OD = OB = 1.
we have OA = OD cot 30° = = OC
The radius OM = OA sin 30° =
the circle has equation x2 + y2 =
A, B, C, D are the points
If P be the point (α, β), then
|PA|2 + |PB|2 + |PC|2 + |PD|2 is equal to
= 2 (α2 + 3) + 2α2 + 2(β2 + 1) + 2β2
= 4(α2 + β2) + 8
= 3 + 8 = 11 since α2 + β2 = or 4(α2 + β2) = 3.
