Let $\Omega$ and $\omega$ be circles with radii $123$ and $61$, respectively, such that the center of $\Omega$ lies on $\omega$. A chord of $\Omega$ is cut by $\omega$ into three segments, whose lengths are in the ratio $1 : 2 : 3$ in that order. Given that this chord is not a diameter of $\Omega$, compute the length of this chord.

A badminton club consists of $2n$ members who are n couples. The club plans to arrange a round of mixed doubles matches where spouses neither play together nor against each other. Requirements are:
$\cdot$ Each pair of members of the same gender meets exactly once as opponents in a mixed doubles match.
$\cdot$ Any two members of the opposite gender who are not spouses meet exactly once as partners and also as opponents in a mixed doubles match.
Given that $(n,6)=1$, can you arrange a round of mixed doubles matches that meets the above specifications and requirements?

Alice is at coordinate point $(0, 0)$ and wants to go to point $(11, 6)$. Similarly, Bob is at coordinate point $(5, 6)$ and wants to go to point $(16, 0)$. Both of them choose a lattice path from their current position to their target position at random (such that each lattice path has an equal probability of being chosen), where a lattice path is defined to be a path composed of unit segments with orthogonal direction (parallel to x-axis or y-axis) and of minimal length. (For instance, there are six lattice paths from $(0, 0)$ to $(2, 2)$.) If they walk with the same speed, find the probability that they meet.
