A block of wood has the shape of a right circular cylinder with radius $6$ and height $8$, and its entire surface has been painted blue. Points $A$ and $B$ are chosen on the edge on one of the circular faces of the cylinder so that $\overarc{AB}$ on that face measures $120^\circ$. The block is then sliced in half along the plane that passes through point $A$, point $B$, and the center of the cylinder, revealing a flat, unpainted face on each half. The area of one of those unpainted faces is $a\cdot\pi + b\sqrt{c}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $a+b+c$.

Prove that any uncountable subset of the Euclidean $ n$-space contains an countable subset with the property that the distances between different pairs of points are different (that is, for any points $ P_1 \not\equal{} P_2$ and $ Q_1\not\equal{} Q_2$ of this subset, $ \overline{P_1P_2}\equal{}\overline{Q_1Q_2}$ implies either $ P_1\equal{}Q_1$ and $ P_2\equal{}Q_2$, or $ P_1\equal{}Q_2$ and $ P_2\equal{}Q_1$). Show that a similar statement is not valid if the Euclidean $ n$-space is replaced with a (separable) Hilbert space.
