Three non-overlapping regular plane polygons, at least two of which are congruent, all have sides of length $ 1$. The polygons meet at a point $ A$ in such a way that the sum of the three interior angles at $ A$ is $ 360^\circ$. Thus the three polygons form a new polygon with $ A$ as an interior point. What is the largest possible perimeter that this polygon can have?

Prove that for any real $r>0$, one can cover the circumference of a $1\times r$ rectangle with non-intersecting disks of unit radius.
One container of paint is exactly enough to cover the inside of an old rectangle which is three times as long as it is wide. If we make a new rectangle by shortening the old rectangle by $18$ feet and widening it by $8$ feet as shown below, one container of paint is also exactly enough to cover the inside of the new rectangle. Find the length in feet of the perimeter of the new rectangle.

Consider a regular $2^k$-gon with center $O$ and label its sides clockwise by $l_1,l_2,...,l_{2^k}$. Reflect $O$ with respect to $l_1$, then reflect the resulting point with respect to $l_2$ and do this process until the last side. Prove that the distance between the final point and $O$ is less than the perimeter of the $2^k$-gon.

In an isosceles trapezoid, the parallel bases have lengths $\log3$ and $\log192$, and the altitude to these bases has length $\log16$. The perimeter of the trapezoid can be written in the form $\log2^p3^q$, where $p$ and $q$ are positive integers. Find $p+q$.
