    Let \(K\) be a compact convex set in \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\). Denote by \(A_{K}\), \(P_{K}\), \(R_{K}\) and \(r_{K}\) the area, perimeter, circumradius and the inradius of \(K\) respectively, then \( P_{K}^{2}-4 \pi A_{K}\geq \pi^{2} (R_{K}-r_{K})^{2} (1),\) this is the classical example of Bonnesen type ineqaulity. Using the kinematic technique of Santaló and Hadwiger, the author proves the Bonnesen type inequality for the Euclidean sphere (of constant Gauss curvature \(\kappa >0\)) (theorem2.1) and hyperbolic plane of constant Gauss curvature \(\kappa < 0\)(theorem 3.1), the limiting case \( \kappa \rightarrow 0\) in either of theorems 2.1 and 3.1 yield the classical Bonnesen inequality (1).
