The following diagram shows a square where each side has seven dots that divide the side into six equal segments. All the line segments that connect these dots that form a $45^{\circ}$ angle with a side of the square are drawn as shown. The area of the shaded region is 75. Find the area of the original square.

Let $ \mathcal{R}$ be the region consisting of the set of points in the coordinate plane that satisfy both $ |8 \minus{} x| \plus{} y \le 10$ and $ 3y \minus{} x \ge 15$. When $ \mathcal{R}$ is revolved around the line whose equation is $ 3y \minus{} x \equal{} 15$, the volume of the resulting solid is $ \frac {m\pi}{n\sqrt {p}}$, where $ m$, $ n$, and $ p$ are positive integers, $ m$ and $ n$ are relatively prime, and $ p$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $ m \plus{} n \plus{} p$.

In the diagram below, points $D, E$, and $F$ are on the inside of equilateral $\vartriangle ABC$ such that $D$ is on $\overline{AE}, E$ is on $\overline{CF}, F$ is on $\overline{BD}$, and the triangles $\vartriangle AEC, \vartriangle BDA$, and $\vartriangle CFB$ are congruent.

Find $a + b + c + d$. [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/8/6/98da82fc1c26fa13883a47ba6d45a015622b20.png[/img]

Three different points were randomly selected from the vertices of the regular $2n$-gon. Let $ p_n $ be the probability of the event that the triangle with vertices at the selected points is acute-angled. Calculate $ \lim_{n\to \infty} p_n $. Attention. We assume that all choices of three different points are equally likely.

2006 USA Team Selection Test, 5

Let $n$ be a given integer with $n$ greater than $7$ , and let $\mathcal{P}$ be a convex polygon with $n$ sides. Any set of $n-3$ diagonals of $\mathcal{P}$ that do not intersect in the interior of the polygon determine a triangulation of $\mathcal{P}$ into $n-2$ triangles. A triangle in the triangulation of $\mathcal{P}$ is an interior triangle if all of its sides are diagonals of $\mathcal{P}$. Express, in terms of $n$, the number of triangulations of $\mathcal{P}$ with exactly two interior triangles, in closed form.

Call a subset of the plane a circular set iff there exists a point such that for every ray starting from it, the ray intersects the subset once. show that the plane is a countable union of circular sets.
