Let be a closed convex curve with a continuously turning tangent and let be a point inside For each point on we define as follows: Draw the tangent to at and from drop the perpendicular to that tangent. Then is the point at which intersects this perpendicular. Starting now with a point on , define points by Prove that the points approach a limit and characterize all possible limit points. (You may assume that is continuous.)
