In the below figure, there is a regular hexagon and three squares whose sides are equal to $4$ cm. Let $M,N$, and $P$ be the centers of the squares. The perimeter of the triangle $MNP$ can be written in the form $a + b\sqrt3$ (cm), where $a, b$ are integers. Compute the value of $a + b$.

Let $P_1,P_2,P_3,P_4$ be four distinct points in the plane. Suppose $\ell_1,\ell_2, … , \ell_6$ are closed segments in that plane with the following property: Every straight line passing through at least one of the points $P_i$ meets the union $\ell_1 \cup \ell_2\cup … \cup\ell_6$ in exactly two points. Prove or disprove that the segments $\ell_i$ necessarily form a hexagon.
