Let's take a $ABCD$ rectangle of paper; the side $AB$ measures $5$ cm and the side $BC$ measures $9$ cm.
We do three folds:
1.We take the $AB$ side on the $BC$ side and call $P$ the point on the $BC$ side that coincides with $A$.
A right trapezoid $BCDQ$ is then formed.
2. We fold so that $B$ and $Q$ coincide. A $5$-sided polygon $RPCDQ$ is formed.
3. We fold again by matching $D$ with $C$ and $Q$ with $P$. A new right trapezoid $RPCS$.
After making these folds, we make a cut perpendicular to $SC$ by its midpoint $T$, obtaining the right trapezoid $RUTS$.
Calculate the area of the figure that appears as we unfold the last trapezoid $RUTS$.

The figure below contains two squares which share an edge, one with side length $200$ units and the other with side length $289$ units. The figure is divided into a whole number of regions, each with an equal whole number area but not necessarily of the same shape. Given that there is more than one region and each region has an area greater than $1$, find the sum of the number of regions and the area of each region.

Island Hopping Holidays offer short holidays to $64$ islands, labeled Island $i, 1 \le i \le 64$. A guest chooses any Island $a$ for the first night of the holiday, moves to Island $b$ for the second night, and finally moves to Island $c$ for the third night. Due to the limited number of boats, we must have $b \in T_a$ and $c \in T_b$, where the sets $T_i$ are chosen so that
(a) each $T_i$ is non-empty, and $i \notin T_i$,
(b) $\sum^{64}_{i=1} |T_i| = 128$, where $|T_i|$ is the number of elements of $T_i$.
Exhibit a choice of sets $T_i$ giving at least $63\cdot 64 + 6 = 4038$ possible holidays.
Note that c = a is allowed, and holiday choices $(a, b, c)$ and $(a',b',c')$ are considered distinct if $a \ne a'$ or $b \ne b'$ or $c \ne c'$.
