Three of the edges of a cube are $\overline{AB}, \overline{BC},$ and $\overline{CD},$ and $\overline{AD}$ is an interior diagonal. Points $P, Q,$ and $R$ are on $\overline{AB}, \overline{BC},$ and $\overline{CD},$ respectively, so that $AP=5, PB=15, BQ=15,$ and $CR=10.$ What is the area of the polygon that is the intersection of plane $PQR$ and the cube?

There is an unlimited supply of congruent equilateral triangles made of colored paper. Each triangle is a solid color with the same color on both sides of the paper. A large equilateral triangle is constructed from four of these paper triangles. Two large triangles are considered distinguishable if it is not possible to place one on the other, using translations, rotations, and/or reflections, so that their corresponding small triangles are of the same color. Given that there are six different colors of triangles from which to choose, how many distinguishable large equilateral triangles may be formed?

Let $A,B,C$ be fixed points in the plane , and $D$ be a variable point on the circle $ABC$, distinct from $A,B,C$ .

Find the locus of the intersection points of the four lines $I_{A},I_{B},I_{C},I_{D}$ when point $D$ varies.
