Draw an equilateral triangle with center $O$. Rotate the equilateral triangle $30^\circ, 60^\circ, 90^\circ$ with respect to $O$ so there would be four congruent equilateral triangles on each other. Look at the diagram. If the smallest triangle has area $1$, the area of the original equilateral triangle could be expressed as $p+q\sqrt r$ where $p,q,r$ are positive integers and $r$ is not divisible by a square greater than $1$. Find $p+q+r$.

We are given a square $ ABCD$. Let $ P$ be a point not equal to a corner of the square or to its center $ M$. For any such $ P$, we let $ E$ denote the common point of the lines $ PD$ and $ AC$, if such a point exists. Furthermore, we let $ F$ denote the common point of the lines $ PC$ and $ BD$, if such a point exists. All such points $ P$, for which $ E$ and $ F$ exist are called acceptable points. Determine the set of all acceptable points, for which the line $ EF$ is parallel to $ AD$.
