A [i]triangulation[/i] of a polygon is a subdivision of the polygon into triangles meeting edge to edge, with the property that the set of triangle vertices coincides with the set of vertices of the polygon. Adam randomly selects a triangulation of a regular $180$-gon. Then, Bob selects one of the $178$ triangles in this triangulation. The expected number of $1^\circ$ angles in this triangle can be expressed as $\frac{a}{b}$, where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $100a + b$.

[b]p1.[/b] What is the smallest number equal to its cube?
[b]p2.[/b] Fhomas has $5$ red spaghetti and $5$ blue spaghetti, where spaghetti are indistinguishable except for color. In how many different ways can Fhomas eat $6$ spaghetti, one after the other? (Two ways are considered the same if the sequence of colors are identical)
[b]p3.[/b] Jocelyn labels the three corners of a triangle with three consecutive natural numbers. She then labels each edge with the sum of the two numbers on the vertices it touches, and labels the center with the sum of all three edges. If the total sum of all labels on her triangle is $120$, what is the value of the smallest label?

[b]p4.[/b] Adam cooks a pie in the shape of a regular hexagon with side length $12$, and wants to cut it into right triangular pieces with angles $30^o$, $60^o$, and $90^o$, each with shortest side $3$. What is the maximum number of such pieces he can make?
[b]p5.[/b] If $f(x) =\frac{1}{2-x}$ and $g(x) = 1-\frac{1}{x}$ , what is the value of $f(g(f(g(... f(g(f(2019))) ...))))$, where there are $2019$ functions total, counting both $f$ and $g$?
[b]p6.[/b] Fhomas is buying spaghetti again, which is only sold in two types of boxes: a $200$ gram box and a $500$ gram box, each with a fixed price. If Fhomas wants to buy exactly $800$ grams, he must spend $\$8:80$, but if he wants to buy exactly 900 grams, he only needs to spend $\$7:90$! In dollars, how much more does the $500$ gram box cost than the $200$ gram box?

[b]p8.[/b] Hexagon $JAMESU$ has line of symmetry $MU$ (i.e., quadrilaterals $JAMU$ and $SEMU$ are reflections of each other), and $JA = AM = ME = ES = 1$. If all angles of $JAMESU$ are $135$ degrees except for right angles at $A$ and $E$, find the length of side $US$.
[b]p9.[/b] Max is parked at the $11$ mile mark on a highway, when his pet cheetah, Min, leaps out of the car and starts running up the highway at its maximum speed. At the same time, Max starts his car and starts driving down the highway at $\frac12$ his maximum speed, driving all the way to the $10$ mile mark before realizing that his cheetah is gone! Max then immediately reverses directions and starts driving back up the highway at his maximum speed, nally catching up to Min at the $20$ mile mark. What is the ratio between Max's max speed and Min's max speed?
