A tetrahedron is called a [i]MEMO-tetrahedron[/i] if all six sidelengths are different positive integers where one of them is $ 2$ and one of them is $ 3$. Let $ l(T)$ be the sum of the sidelengths of the tetrahedron $ T$.
(a) Find all positive integers $ n$ so that there exists a MEMO-Tetrahedron $ T$ with $ l(T)\equal{}n$.
(b) How many pairwise non-congruent MEMO-tetrahedrons $ T$ satisfying $ l(T)\equal{}2007$ exist? Two tetrahedrons are said to be non-congruent if one cannot be obtained from the other by a composition of reflections in planes, translations and rotations. (It is not neccessary to prove that the tetrahedrons are not degenerate, i.e. that they have a positive volume).

Rob is helping to build the set for a school play. For one scene, he needs to build a multi-colored tetrahedron out of cloth and bamboo. He begins by fitting three lengths of bamboo together, such that they meet at the same point, and each pair of bamboo rods meet at a right angle. Three more lengths of bamboo are then cut to connect the other ends of the first three rods. Rob then cuts out four triangular pieces of fabric: a blue piece, a red piece, a green piece, and a yellow piece. These triangular pieces of fabric just fill in the triangular spaces between the bamboo, making up the four faces of the tetrahedron. The areas in square feet of the red, yellow, and green pieces are $60$, $20$, and $15$ respectively. If the blue piece is the largest of the four sides, find the number of square feet in its area.

Given a triangular pyramid in which all the plane angles at one of the vertices are right. It is known that there is a point in space located at a distance of $3$ from the indicated vertex and at distances $\sqrt5, \sqrt6, \sqrt7$ from three other vertices. Find the radius of the sphere circumscribed around this pyramid. (The circumscribed sphere for a pyramid is the sphere containing all its vertices.)

Hereby, we say that the distance of a point $C$ to a figure $m$ is $\leq R$ if there exists a point $D$ of the figure $m$ such that the distance $CD$ is $\leq R.$ (This point $D$ may lie on the boundary of the figure $m$ and inside the figure.)
additional question:
[i]b.)[/i] Find the area of the planar $R$-neighborhood of a convex or non-convex polygon $m.$
[i]c.)[/i] Find the volume of the $R$-neighborhood of a convex polyhedron, e. g. of a cube or of a tetrahedron.
[b]Note by Darij:[/b] I guess that the ''$R$-neighborhood'' of a figure is defined as the locus of all points whose distance to the figure is $\leq R.$
