The area of the polygon is $S.$ If $I$ is the number of lattice points that are strictly in the interior of the polygon and B the number of lattice points on the border of the polygon, find the number $T = 2S- B -2I + 2.$
Alice creates the graphs $y=|x-a|$ and $y=c-|x-b|$ , where $a,b,c\in\mathbb{R^+}$. She observes that these two graphs and $x$ axis divides the positive side of the plane ($x,y>0$) into two triangles and a quadrilateral. Find the ratio of sums of two triangles' areas to the area of quadrilateral.
[hide=There might be a translation error] In the original statement,it says $XOY$ plane,instead of positive side of the plane. I think these 2 are the same,but I might be wrong [/hide]

The vertical diameter of a circle is moved a centimetres to the right, and the horizontal diameter of this circle is moved $b$ centimetres up. These two lines divide the circle into four pieces. Consider the sum of the areas of the largest and the smallest pieces, and the sum of the areas of the other two pieces. Find the difference between these two sums.
