Three concentric circles centered at $O$ have radii of $1$, $2$, and $3$. Points $B$ and $C$ lie on the largest circle. The region between the two smaller circles is shaded, as is the portion of the region between the two larger circles bounded by central angle $BOC$, as shown in the figure below. Suppose the shaded and unshaded regions are equal in area. What is the measure of $\angle{BOC}$ in degrees? [asy] size(100); import graph; draw(circle((0,0),3)); real radius = 3; real angleStart = -54; // starting angle of the sector real angleEnd = 54; // ending angle of the sector label("$O$",(0,0),W); pair O = (0, 0); filldraw(arc(O, radius, angleStart, angleEnd)--O--cycle, lightgray); filldraw(circle((0,0),2),lightgray); filldraw(circle((0,0),1),white); draw((1.763,2.427)--(0,0)--(1.763,-2.427)); label("$B$",(1.763,2.427),NE); label("$C$",(1.763,-2.427),SE); [/asy] $\textbf{(A)}\ 108 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 120 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 135 \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 144 \qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 150$

A group of frogs (called an army) is living in a tree. A frog turns green when in the shade and yellow when in the sun. Initially the ratio of green to yellow frogs was 3:1. Then 3 green frogs moved to the sunny side and 5 yellow frogs moved to the shady side. Now the ratio is 4:1. What is the difference between the number of green frogs and yellow frogs now? $\textbf{(A) } 10\qquad\textbf{(B) } 12\qquad\textbf{(C) } 16\qquad\textbf{(D) } 20\qquad\textbf{(E) } 24$

Jean made a piece of stained glass art in the shape of two mountains, as shown in the figure below. One mountain peak is $8$ feet high and the other peak is $12$ feet high. Each peak forms a $90^\circ$ angle, and the straight sides of the mountains form $45^\circ$ with the ground. The artwork has an area of $183$ square feet.

A chess king is said to ''attack'' all squares one step away from it (basically any square right next to it in any direction), horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
