 i think answer can also be circular   region ...  in q. it is said points P_i  are on   circumference  of circle of R=1.  so let′s make  a circle of radius   say r=0.25 so all the points in  circular region will definitely be   closer to O than P_i .

the boundary of the area will be  the points that are equidistant  from the centre O and the  nearest point among P_1 ,P_2 ,P_3 ,P_4 ,  and P_5 .

consider pentagon divided into  5 triangles with common vertex  O. In any one triangle the  boundary of the required region  is the set of points equidistant  from O and as well as one of  the other two vertices that is  nearer to tbe boundary locus point.  Not circular. It is the region  witbin the pentagon formed by  the perpendicular bisectors of  OP_1 , OP_2 , ..., OP_5  .
