A short proof is offered to the following theorem due to \textit{E. Bannai} and \textit{T. Ito} [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B. 27, 274-293 (1979; Zbl 0427.15005)]: The eigenvalues of Moore polygons are at most quadratic with respect to the field of rational numbers. The present proof is based on an equation by the author [Discrete Math. 67, 89-96 (1987; Zbl 0671.05061)] satisfied by the eigenvalues of any generalized Moore geometry \(GM_ m(1,t,c)\) where \(t>1\).
