Abstract: A tangential trapezoid, also called a circumscribed trapezoid, is a trapezoid whose four sides are all tangent to a circle within the trapezoid: the in-circle or inscribed circle. In this paper we classify all planar four-body central configurations, where the four bodies are at the vertices of a tangential trapezoid.

Keywords: convex central configuration, four-body problem, tangential trapezoid.
