Problem Statement
Determine all bounded closed subsets of the plane with the following property: consists of at least two points and always contains two points and as well as at least one of the two semicircular arcs over the segment . Definitions: A subset of the of the plane is said to be closed if: For every point of the plane that is not an element of , there is a (non-degenerate) disc with center that has no elements of .
