The rectangle with vertices $(0,0)$, $(0,3)$, $(2,0)$ and $(2,3)$ is rotated clockwise through a right angle about the point $(2,0)$, then about $(5,0)$, then about $(7,0$), and finally about $(10,0)$. The net effect is to translate it a distance $10$ along the $x$-axis. The point initially at $(1,1)$ traces out a curve. Find the area under this curve (in other words, the area of the region bounded by the curve, the $x$-axis and the lines parallel to the $y$-axis through $(1,0)$ and $(11,0)$).

Acute triangle $ABC$ is inscribed in a circle with center $O$. The reflections of $O$ across the three altitudes of the triangle are called $U$, $V$, $W$: $U$ over the altitude from $A$, $V$ over the altitude from $B$, and $W$ over the altitude from $C$. Let $\ell_A$ be a line through $A$ parallel to $VW$, and define $\ell_B$, $\ell_C$ similarly. Prove that the three lines $\ell_A$, $\ell_B$, $\ell_C$ are concurrent.

Let $(O)$ be a fixed circle with the radius $R$. Let $A$ and $B$ be fixed points in $(O)$ such that $A,B,O$ are not collinear. Consider a variable point $C$ lying on $(O)$ ($C\neq A,B$). Construct two circles $(O_1),(O_2)$ passing through $A,B$ and tangent to $BC,AC$ at $C$, respectively. The circle $(O_1)$ intersects the circle $(O_2)$ in $D$ ($D\neq C$). Prove that: a) \[ CD\leq R \] b) The line $CD$ passes through a point independent of $C$ (i.e. there exists a fixed point on the line $CD$ when $C$ lies on $(O)$).
