Let $n$ and $k$ be relatively prime positive integers with $k<n$. Each number in the set $M=\{1,2,3,\ldots,n-1\}$ is colored either blue or white. For each $i$ in $M$, both $i$ and $n-i$ have the same color. For each $i\ne k$ in $M$ both $i$ and $|i-k|$ have the same color. Prove that all numbers in $M$ must have the same color.

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 $100a + b$.

This cup has height $h$ and volume $V$. A second cup that is exactly the same shape as the first is held upright inside the fi rst cup so that its base is a distance of $\tfrac{h}2$ from the base of the fi rst cup.
