$100$ points are marked in the plane so that no three of marked points are collinear. One of marked points is red, and the others are blue. A triangle with vertices at blue points is called [i]good[/i] if the red point lies inside it.

It is not possible to construct a segment of length $\pi$ using a straightedge, compass, and a given segment of length $1$. The following construction, given in $1685$ by Adam Kochansky, yields a segment whose length agrees with $\pi$ to five decimal places:
Construct a circle of radius $1$ and call its center $O$. Construct a diameter $AB$ of this circle and a line $\ell$ tangent to the circle at $A$. Next, draw a circle with radius $1$ centered at $A$, and call one of the intersections with the original circle $C$. Now from C draw an arc of radius $1$ intersecting the circle around $A$ at $D$, where $D$ lies outside of the circle centered at $O$. Draw $OD$ and let $E$ be its point of intersection with $\ell$ . Construct $H$ on $AE$ such that $A$ is between $H$ and $E$, and $HE=3$.
The distance between $B$ and $H$ is then close to $\pi$; calculate its exact value.
