Two skaters, Allie and Billie, are at points $A$ and $B$, respectively, on a flat, frozen lake. The distance between $A$ and $B$ is $100$ meters. Allie leaves $A$ and skates at a speed of $8$ meters per second on a straight line that makes a $60^\circ$ angle with $AB$. At the same time Allie leaves $A$, Billie leaves $B$ at a speed of $7$ meters per second and follows the straight path that produces the earliest possible meeting of the two skaters, given their speeds. How many meters does Allie skate before meeting Billie?

2009 Stanford Mathematics Tournament, 5
In the 2009 Stanford Olympics, Willy and Sammy are two bikers. The circular race track has two
lanes, the inner lane with radius 11, and the outer with radius 12. Willy will start on the inner lane,
and Sammy on the outer. They will race for one complete lap, measured by the inner track.
What is the square of the distance between Willy and Sammy's starting positions so that they will both race
the same distance? Assume that they are of point size and ride perfectly along their respective lanes

An equilateral triangle is given. A point lies on the incircle of this triangle. If the smallest two distances from the point to the sides of the triangle is $1$ and $4$, the sidelength of this equilateral triangle can be expressed as $\tfrac{a\sqrt b}c$ where $(a,c)=1$ and $b$ is not divisible by the square of an integer greater than $1$. Find $a+b+c$.

There exists a circle $\omega_2$ such that $\omega_1 \neq \omega_2$ and $\omega_2$ is tangent to $\phi_i$ for $1 \le i \le 8$. The radius of $\omega_2$ can be expressed in the form $a - b\sqrt{c} -d\sqrt{e - \sqrt{f}} + g \sqrt{h - j \sqrt{k}}$ such that $a, b, \dots, k$ are positive integers and the numbers $e, f, k, \gcd(h, j)$ are squarefree.
