Triangle $JHT$ has side lengths $JH = 14$, $HT = 10$, and $TJ = 16$. Points $I$ and $U$ lie on $\overline{JH}$ and $\overline{JT},$ respectively, so that $HI = TU = 1.$ Let $M$ and $N$ be the midpoints of $\overline{HT}$ and $\overline{IU},$ respectively. Line $MN$ intersects another side of $\triangle JHT$ at a point $P$ other than $M.$ Compute $MP^2.$

The following process is applied to each positive integer: the sum of its digits is subtracted from the number, and the result is divided by $9$. For example, the result of the process applied to $938$ is $102$, since $\frac{938-(9 + 3 + 8)}{9} = 102.$ Applying the process twice to $938$ the result is $11$, applied three times the result is $1$, and applying it four times the result is $0$. When the process is applied one or more times to an integer $n$, the result is eventually $0$. The number obtained before obtaining $0$ is called the [i]house[/i] of $n$. How many integers less than $26000$ share the same [i]house[/i] as $2012$?
