Surface of constant width — In geometry, a surface of constant width is a convex form whose width, measured by the distance between two opposite parallelplanes touching its boundary, is the same regardless of the direction of those two parallel planes. One defines the width … Wikipedia
Curve of constant width — A Reuleaux triangle is a curve of constant width. The sides of the square are supporting lines: each touches the curve but does not intersect the interior. The Reuleaux triangle can be rotated whilst always touching each side of the square in a… … Wikipedia
