In a country named Fillip, there are three major cities called Alenda, Breda, Chenida. This country uses the unit of "FP". The distance between Alenda and Chenida is $100$ FP. Breda is $70$ FP from Alenda and $30$ FP from Chenida. Let us say that we take a road trip from Alenda to Chenida. After $2$ hours of driving, we are currently at $50$ FP away from Alenda and $50$ FP away from Chenida. How many FP are we away from Breda?

$(BUL 5)$ Let $Z$ be a set of points in the plane. Suppose that there exists a pair of points that cannot be joined by a polygonal line not passing through any point of $Z.$ Let us call such a pair of points unjoinable.
