Can we get some words written in text and not in a picture, in case someone decides to search the site for "bisecting"?

Oct 14, 2018 at 13:31 comment added Joseph O'Rourke I don't think it is obvious how to find the shortest chord that bisects the area of a convex polygon. Perhaps one would have to use this algorithm, modified to spin the direction through $180^\circ$: Shermer, Thomas C. "A linear algorithm for bisecting a polygon." Information processing letters 41, no. 3 (1992): 135-140.

Oct 14, 2018 at 12:09 comment added Carlo Beenakker I'm sorry, but you have reached the wrong site; this is for research into mathematics, for general (more elementary) math questions you might try math.stackexchange.com ; you may want to be more explicit about what is the problem you want to solve, this is not very clear at the moment.
