Let \(E_K\) be the \(n\)-dimensional (\(n\geq 2\)) hyperbolic space of curvature \(K\) for \(K<0\), the Euclidean space for \(K=0\), and the sphere of curvature \(K\) for \(K>0\). For any convex body \(\Phi \subset E_K\), the author proves some (unimprovable) inequalities between the radius of the biggest sphere which can be rolled on the inward side of \(\Phi\), the radius of the inscribed sphere for \(\Phi\), the radius of the circumscribed sphere for \(\Phi\), and the radius of the smallest sphere such that \(\Phi\) can be rolled on its inward side. Similar results for convex bodies in Euclidean spaces were obtained in [\textit{V.~K.~Ionin}, Sib. Math. J. 39, No. 4, 700-715 (1998; Zbl 0913.53005)].
