Keywords:
Steiner formula; Holditch Theorem; homothetic motion
Summary:
In this paper, under the one-parameter closed planar homothetic motion, a generalization of Holditch Theorem is obtained by using two different line segments (with fixed lengths) whose endpoints move along two different closed curves.
