We are given a coin of diameter $\frac{1}{2}$ and a checkerboard of $1\times1$ squares of area $2010\times2010$. We toss the coin such that it lands completely on the checkerboard. If the probability that the coin doesn't touch any of the lattice lines is $\frac{a^2}{b^2}$ where $\frac{a}{b}$ is a reduced fraction, find $a+b$

We call a path Valid if
i. It only comprises of the following kind of steps:
A. $(x, y) \rightarrow (x + 1, y + 1)$
B. $(x, y) \rightarrow (x + 1, y - 1)$
ii. It never goes below the x-axis.
Let $M(n)$ = set of all valid paths from $(0,0) $, to $(2n,0)$, where $n$ is a natural number.
Consider a Valid path $T \in M(n)$.
Denote $\phi(T) = \prod_{i=1}^{2n} \mu_i$,
where $\mu_i$=
a) $1$, if the $i^{th}$ step is $(x, y) \rightarrow (x + 1, y + 1)$
b) $y$, if the $i^{th} $ step is $(x, y) \rightarrow (x + 1, y - 1)$
Now Let $f(n) =\sum _{T \in M(n)} \phi(T)$. Evaluate the number of zeroes at the end in the decimal expansion of $f(2021)$

In triangle $ABC$ we inscribe a square such that one of the sides of the square lies on the side $AC$, and the other two vertices lie on sides $AB$ and $BC$. Furthermore we know that $AC = 5$, $BC = 4$ and $AB = 3$. This square cuts out three smaller triangles from $\vartriangle ABC$. Express the sum of reciprocals of the inradii of these three small triangles as a fraction $p/q$ in lowest terms (i.e. with $p$ and $q$ coprime). What is $p + q$?
