Extract

In this note we consider a problem which is suggested by a paper of W. Feller. A plane set A lies in a circle C of centre O and radius 1, and is such that the linear measure of the intersection of A with any straight line does not exceed 21, where 0 < l < 1. To find the upper bound of the plane measure of A. Both linear measure and plane measure are taken in the sense of Lebesgue, and they will be denoted by m and m2 respectively.
