Abstract
In what follows we shall mean by a plane convex body K a compact convex subset of the Euclidean plane having nonempty interior. We shall denote by h (K, θ) the supporting function of K restricted to the unit circle. This measures the signed distances from the origin to the supporting line of K with outward normal (cos θ, sin θ). The right hand and left hand derivatives of h (K, θ) exist everywhere and are equal except on a countable set.
