4. There are 5 tables in a classroom. Each table has 4 chairs with a child sitting on it. All the children get up and randomly sit in a seat. Two people that sat at the same table before are not allowed to sit at the same table again. Assuming tables and chairs are distinguishable, if the number of different classroom arrangements can be written as $2^a3^b5^c$, what is $a+b+c$?

In the diagram below, rectangle $ABCD$ has $AB = 5$ and $AD = 12$. Also, $E$ is a point in the same plane outside $ABCD$ such that the perpendicular distances from $E$ to the lines $AB$ and $AD$ are $12$ and $1$, respectively, and $\triangle ABE$ is acute. There exists a line passing through $E$ which splits $ABCD$ into two figures of equal area. Suppose that this line intersects $\overline{AB}$ at a point $F$ and $\overline{CD}$ at a point $G$. Find $FG^2$.

Two circles, $C$ and $K$, are secant at $A$ and $B$. Let $P$ be a point on the arc $AB$ of $C$. Lines $PA$ and $PB$ intersect $K$ again at $R$ and $S$ respectively. Let $P'$ be another point at same arc as $P$, so that lines $P'A$ and $P'B$ again intersect $K$ at $R'$ and $S'$, respectively. Prove that the arcs $RS$ and $R'S'$ have equal measures.

[b]p6.[/b] A family of funny dwarfs consists of a dad, a mom, and a child. Their names are: $A$, $R$, and $C$ (not in order). During lunch, $C$ made the statements: “$R$ and $A$ have different genders” and “$R$ and $A$ are my parents”, and $A$ made the statements “I am $C$'s dad” and “I am $R$'s daughter.” In fact, each dwarf told truth once and told a lie once. What is the name of the dad, what is the name of the child, and is the child a son or a daughter?
