The integer 72 is the first of three consecutive integers 72, 73, and 74, that can each be expressed as the sum of the squares of two positive integers. The integers 72, 288, and 800 are the first three members of an infinite increasing sequence of integers with the above property. Find a function that generates the sequence and give the next three members.

In a circle of radius 42, two chords of length 78 intersect at a point whose distance from the center is 18. The two chords divide the interior of the circle into four regions. Two of these regions are bordered by segments of unequal lenghts, and the area of either of them can be expressed uniquley in the form $m\pi-n\sqrt{d},$ where $m, n,$ and $d$ are positive integers and $d$ is not divisible by the square of any prime number. Find $m+n+d.$

For a positive integer $n$, an [i]$n$-branch[/i] $B$ is an ordered tuple $(S_1, S_2, \dots, S_m)$ of nonempty sets (where $m$ is any positive integer) satisfying $S_1 \subset S_2 \subset \dots \subset S_m \subseteq \{1,2,\dots,n\}$. An integer $x$ is said to [i]appear[/i] in $B$ if it is an element of the last set $S_m$. Define an [i]$n$-plant[/i] to be an (unordered) set of $n$-branches $\{ B_1, B_2, \dots, B_k\}$, and call it [i]perfect[/i] if each of $1$, $2$, \dots, $n$ appears in exactly one of its branches. Let $T_n$ be the number of distinct perfect $n$-plants (where $T_0=1$), and suppose that for some positive real number $x$ we have the convergence \[ \ln \left( \sum_{n \ge 0} T_n \cdot \frac{\left( \ln x \right)^n}{n!} \right) = \frac{6}{29}. \] If $x = \tfrac mn$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$, compute $m+n$.
