Historical Note on Smallest Pythagorean Quadrilateral with Integer Sides
David Wells reports in his Curious and Interesting Numbers, 2nd ed. of $1997$ that this result was published in Journal of Recreational Mathematics Volume $21$ no. $9$ by Hugh ApSimon, but this has not been corroborated.
It is also uncertain at this stage exactly what a Pythagorean quadrilateral actually is.
