Problem
There are distinct quadrilaterals that can be formed from the vertices of a regular octagon. Which of these statements must hold true for all those quadrilaterals?
Solution
All regular octagons can be inscribed in a circle, thus any subset of vertice's from this octagon also all lie on the same circle. It is easy to see that none of the other answer choices work. Therefore, the answer is $\boxed{\textbf{(B) }\text{All of the 70 quadrilaterals are cyclic.}}
