Let
be a convex polygon in a plane,
its perimeter and
its area. Let
be the locus of all points in the space whose distance to
is
and
is the volume of the solid 
a.) Prove that![\[V (R) = \frac 43 \pi R^3 +\frac{\pi}{2} lR^2 +2SR.\]](//latex.artofproblemsolving.com/c/7/7/c771c7c19b35c8ea5ec375184553b5550f582149.png)
Hereby, we say that the distance of a point
to a figure
is
if there exists a point
of the figure
such that the distance
is
(This point
may lie on the boundary of the figure
and inside the figure.)
additional question:
b.) Find the area of the planar
-neighborhood of a convex or non-convex polygon 
c.) Find the volume of the
-neighborhood of a convex polyhedron, e. g. of a cube or of a tetrahedron.
Note by Darij: I guess that the ''
-neighborhood'' of a figure is defined as the locus of all points whose distance to the figure is
