If you walk around a triangle with sides 3, 6, 8  respectively such a way that you keep a distance   of 3m from it, then    how much distance will you travel?

always =a+b+c+2πd                  =3+6+8+2π×3=17+6π

$${always}\:={a}+{b}+{c}+\mathrm{2}\pi{d} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{8}+\mathrm{2}\pi×\mathrm{3}=\mathrm{17}+\mathrm{6}\pi \\ $$

This is what i wanted to point out through a few   questions that the travelled distance is:   Σ Lenghts of the polygon sides + 2π. ℓ   Thanks!
