For any given triangle $A_0B_0C_0$ consider a sequence of triangles constructed as follows: a new triangle $A_1B_1C_1$ (if any) has its sides (in cm) that equal to the angles of $A_0B_0C_0$ (in radians). Then for $\vartriangle A_1B_1C_1$ consider a new triangle $A_2B_2C_2$ (if any) constructed in the similar พay, i.e., $\vartriangle A_2B_2C_2$ has its sides (in cm) that equal to the angles of $A_1B_1C_1$ (in radians), and so on. Determine for which initial triangles $A_0B_0C_0$ the sequence never terminates.

Jonathan and Eric are standing one kilometer apart on a large, flat, empty field. Jonathan rotates an angle of $\theta = 120^o$ counterclockwise around Eric, then Eric moves half of the distance to Jonathan. They keep repeating the previous two movements in this order. After a very long time, their locations approach a point $P$ on the field. What is the distance, in kilometers, from Jonathan’s starting location to $P$?
