✦ Synopsis

In this paper we mainly consider triangles inscribed in a semicircle of a normed space; in two-dimensional spaces, their perimeter has connections with the perimeter of the sphere. Moreover, by using the largest values the perimeter of such triangles can have, we define two new, simple parameters in real normed spaces: one of these parameters is strictly connected with the modulus of convexity of the space, while the study of the other one seems to be more complicated. We calculate the value of our two parameters and we bring out a few connections among their values and the geometry of real normed spaces.

A number of writers have defined a concept of angle in a normed linear space or metric space by means of the law of cosines, and have studied the properties of these angles obtaining, in some cases, characterizations of real inner product spaces.

The concept of orthogonality in normed linear spaces has been studied extensively by BIRKHOFF [3], JAMES IS], [7], [8], and the present authors [l], 151, among others. The most natural notion of orthogonality arises in the case where there is an inner product (-, -) compatible with the norm 11. 11 o
