A square with side length $6$ has a circle with radius $2$ inside of it, with the centers of the square and circle vertically aligned. Aarush is standing $4$ units directly above the center of the circle, at point $P.$ What is the area of the region inside the square that he can see? (Assume that Aarush can only see parts of the square along straight lines of sight from $P$ that are unblocked by any other objects.)

[b]6.1[/b] The capacities of cubic vessels are in the ratio 1:8:27 and the volumes of liquid poured into them are 1: 2: 3. After this, from the first to a certain amount of liquid was poured into the second vessel, and then from the second in the third so that in all three vessels the liquid level became the same. After this, 128 4/7 liters were poured from the first vessel into the second, and from the second in the first back so much that the height of the liquid column in the first vessel became twice as large as in the second. It turned out that in the first vessel there were 100 fewer liters than at first. How much liquid was initially in each vessel?

Suppose a $m \times n$ table. We write an integer in each cell of the table. In each move, we chose a column, a row, or a diagonal (diagonal is the set of cells which the difference between their row number and their column number is constant) and add either $+1$ or $-1$ to all of its cells. Prove that if for all arbitrary $3 \times 3$ table we can change all numbers to zero, then we can change all numbers of $m \times n$ table to zero. ([i]Hint[/i]: First of all think about it how we can change number of $ 3 \times 3$ table to zero.)
