\textit{L. Coghlan} and \textit{Y. Itokawa} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 109, No. 1, 215-221 (1990; Zbl 0703.53046)] proved the following result: Let \(f:M\to M^{d+1}(c)\) be an isometric immersion of a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension \(d\geq 2\) into a simply connected space form of constant curvature \(c\) and let \(K\) be the sectional curvature of \(M\). Suppose that \(f(M)\) is contained in a metric ball \(B_r\) of radius \(r\). Assume either one of the following conditions: (i) \(c=0\) and \(\sup K=1/r\); (ii) \(c>0\), \(f\leq\pi/ (2\sqrt c)\) and \(\sup K=c\text{csc}^2 (\sqrt cr)\); (iii) \(c<0\) and \(\sup K=-c\text{csch}^2 (\sqrt {-c}r)\). Then \(f(M)\) is the boundary of the metric ball. The present paper gives analogous results in case of curves in the Euclidean plane, the unit sphere and the hyperbolic plane, replacing the sectional cuvature of \(M\) by the geodesic curvature of a simple closed curve.
