Leonardo da Vinci added to the concept of the Vitruvian Man by depicting the human body as it fits into both a circle and a square, illustrating the relationship between the ideal human proportions and geometric shapes. Therefore, the correct answer regarding his addition is:

**a. the human body as it fits into a circle.**

While he also included aspects of the square in his representation, the circle is a significant element in his illustration. Note that the aspect concerning reverse-written notes (option b) is also true, but it does not directly pertain to the concept of the Vitruvian Man itself. Option c is less representative of his contribution.
