There is a tiger (which is treated as a point) in the plane that is trying to escape. It starts at the origin at time $t = 0$, and moves continuously at some speed $k$. At every positive integer time $t$, you can place one closed unit disk anywhere in the plane, so long as the disk does not intersect the tiger's current position. The tiger is not allowed to move into any previously placed disks (i.e. the disks block the tiger from moving). Note that when you place the disks, you can "see" the tiger (i.e. know where the tiger currently is).
Your goal is to prevent the tiger from escaping to infinity. In other words, you must show there is some radius $R(k)$ such that, using your algorithm, it is impossible for a tiger with speed $k$ to reach a distance larger than $R(k)$ from the origin (where it started).
Find an algorithm for placing disks such that there exists some finite real $R(k)$ such that the tiger will never be a distance more than $R(k)$ away from the origin.
An algorithm that can trap a tiger of speed $k$ will be awarded:
1 pt for $k<0.05$
10 pts for $k=0.05$
20 pts for $k=0.2$
30 pts for $k=0.3$
50 pts for $k=1$
70 pts for $k=2$
80 pts for $k=2.3$
85 pts for $k=2.6$
90 pts for $k=2.9$
100 pts for $k=3.9$

Let $A,B,C$ be angles of an acute triangle with
\begin{align*}
\cos^2 A + \cos^2 B + 2 \sin A \sin B \cos C &= \frac{15}{8} \text{ and} \\
\cos^2 B + \cos^2 C + 2 \sin B \sin C \cos A &= \frac{14}{9}.
\end{align*}
There are positive integers $p$, $q$, $r$, and $s$ for which \[ \cos^2 C + \cos^2 A + 2 \sin C \sin A \cos B = \frac{p-q\sqrt{r}}{s}, \] where $p+q$ and $s$ are relatively prime and $r$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $p+q+r+s$.

[b]p1.[/b] The fractal T-shirt for this year's Duke Math Meet is so complicated that the printer broke trying to print it. Thus, we devised a method for manually assembling each shirt - starting with the full-size 'base' shirt, we paste a smaller shirt on top of it. And then we paste an even smaller shirt on top of that one. And so on, infinitely many times. (As you can imagine, it took a while to make all the shirts.) The completed T-shirt consists of the original 'base' shirt along with all of the shirts we pasted onto it. Now suppose the base shirt requires $2011$ $cm^2$ of fabric to make, and that each pasted-on shirt requires $4/5$ as much fabric as the previous one did. How many $cm^2$ of fabric in total are required to make one complete shirt?
