摘要：In 1881 Irish mathematician John Casey generalized Ptolemy’s theorem in the following way (see[1], p. 103).Casey’s theorem.Let circles O1, O2, O3, O4on a plane touch given circle O in vertices p1, p2, p3,p4of a convex quadrilateral. Denote by tijthe length of a common tangent of the circles Oiand Oj.If O separates Oiand Ojthen the internal tangent should be taken as tijelse the external tangentshould be taken. In both cases we assume that the tangents are exist. Then

In our paper [2], we produce hyperbolic version of Casey’s theorem.

Theorem 1.Let circles O1, O2, O3, O4on the hyperbolic plane H2touch given circle O in verticesp1, p2, p3, p4of a convex quadrilateral. Denote by tijthe length of a common tangent of the circlesOiand Oj. If O separates Oiand Ojthen the internal tangent should be taken as tijelse the externaltangent should be taken. In both cases we assume that the tangents are exist. Then
