摘要
In this paper we prove the following result: Let Q be a quadrilateral which has minimal width w(Q), or simply width, equal to 1. Then there exists a triangle T inscribed in Q such that w(T)=(root 3)/(2)approximate to.866. Moreover, if Q has a center of symmetry then w(T)>= (root 3)/(2 cos(p/12)) approximate to.8965, with equality if and only if Q is a square with side of length 1.
