Let a set $S$ of $n$ points be called [i]cool[/i] if:
[list]
[*] All points lie in a plane
[*] No three points are collinear
[*] There exists a triangle with three distinct vertices in $S$ such that the triangle contains another point in $S$ strictly inside it

You have a paper pentagon, $ABCDE$, such that $AB = BC = 3$ cm, $CD = DE= 5$ cm, $EA = 4$ cm, $\angle ABC = 100^o$ ,$ \angle CDE = 80^o$. You have to divide the pentagon into four triangles, by three straight cuts, so that with the four triangles assemble a rectangle, without gaps or overlays. (The triangles can be rotated and / or turned around.)
