Curve of Constant Width

Geometry Level 3

In geometry, a curve of constant width is a convex planar shape whose width (defined as the perpendicular distance between two distinct parallel lines each having at least one point in common with the shape's boundary but none with the shape's interior) is the same regardless of the orientation of the curve.

Find the maximum area of any curve of constant width 1 1 .
