An antiparallelogram

An antiparallelogram is a geometrical figure with four sides, whose pairs of nonadjacent sides are the same length but in which two opposite sides intersect (unlike for a parallelogram) hence are not parallel.

If the lengths at the neighbouring sides are antiparallelograms stand in this root \sqrt{2}:1 and if one holds one of the neighboring sides, then the centre of the opposite sides are a Bernouillian lemniscate.

An antiparallelogram can be developed as a mechanical construction with joints and the terminator points of these straight lines. so these straight lines can be converted into a circular.
