A pupil has tried to make a copy of a convex polygon, drawn inside the unit circle. He draw one side, from its end -- another, and so on. Having finished, he has noticed that the first and the last vertices do not coincide, but are situated $d$ units of length far from each other. The pupil draw angles precisely, but made relative error less than $p$ in the lengths of sides. Prove that $d < 4p$.
