We introduce a function w k (θ ) for closed convex plane curves, and then prove a geometric inequality involving w k (θ ) and the area A enclosed by the curve.As a by-product, we give a new proof of the classical isoperimetric inequality.Finally, we give some properties of convex curves with w k (θ ) being constant and pose an open problem motivated by the elegant Blaschke-Lebesgue theorem.
