QG-P2 Midpoint 3rd QA-Diagonal
We use this terminology.
A “QA-Quadrigon” is a Quadrigon seen as the Component of a Quadrangle.
A “QL-Quadrigon” is a Quadrigon seen as the Component of a Quadrilateral.
The 3rd Diagonal of a QA-Quadrigon is the same line as the 3rd Diagonal of a QL-Quadrigon. However the Midpoint of a QA-Quadrigon is different from the Midpoint of a QL-Quadrigon.
QG-P2 is the Midpoint of the segment on the 3rd Diagonal of a QA-Quadrigon limited by the intersection points with the 3rd Diagonals of the 2 other Component QA-Quadrigons.
Construction:
Let S1 = P1.P2 ^ P3.P4 and S2 = P2.P3 ^ P4.P1.
QG-P2 = the Midpoint of S1 and S2.

Properties:
- QG-P2 lies on these lines:
- QG-P2 is the fourth harmonic point of QG-P12 (Inscribed Harmonic Conic Center) on the Newton Line (QL-L1) wrt the midpoints of the diagonals (note Eckart Schmidt).
- The triangle formed by the 3 QA-Versions of QG-P2 is the medial triangle of the QA-Diagonal Triangle.
- The 3 QL-Versions of QG-P2 are 3 points on the Newton Line QL-L1 with centroid QL-P12. See Ref-66, QPG-message#1271.
- The circle defined by the 3 versions of QG-P2 (QA-Ci2) in a Quadrangle is incident with QA-P17, QA-P29, QA-P36 and the foci of the QA-parabolas (QA-2Co1).
- The Triple Triangle of QG-P2 is perspective with all QA-Component Triangles (see QA-Tr-1 for Desmic Triple Triangles).
