Three right-angled triangles have been placed in a halfplane determined by a line $\ell$, each with one leg lying on $\ell$.

Show that, if each of the triangles is rotated so that its other leg lies on $\ell$, then there still exists a line parallel to $\ell$ cutting them in three congruent segments.

A plane intersects a sphere of radius $10$ such that the distance from the center of the sphere to the plane is $9$. The plane moves toward the center of the bubble at such a rate that the increase in the area of the intersection of the plane and sphere is constant, and it stops once it reaches the center of the circle. Determine the distance from the center of the sphere to the plane after two-thirds of the time has passed.
