Maximum-perimeter convex subset conjecture for triangles
Maximum-perimeter convex subset conjecture for triangles
Let be a triangle with vertices , , and . Assume that its diameter is the side and that . For , consider convex subsets with area . Triangle maximizer conjecture. The solution of
is the triangle , where and its area is equal to . This conjecture specifies the optimizer for the perimeter-maximization problem in a triangular container; the supplied evidence marks it as resolved, although the excerpt does not state the result resolving it.
