Three distinct segments are chosen at random among the segments whose end-points are the vertices of a regular 12-gon. What is the probability that the lengths of these three segments are the three side lengths of a triangle with positive area? $ \textbf{(A)} \ \frac{553}{715} \qquad \textbf{(B)} \ \frac{443}{572} \qquad \textbf{(C)} \ \frac{111}{143} \qquad \textbf{(D)} \ \frac{81}{104} \qquad \textbf{(E)} \ \frac{223}{286}$

In circle $\theta_1$ with radius $1$, circles $\phi_1, \phi_2, \dots, \phi_8$, with equal radii, are drawn such that for $1 \le i \le 8$, $\phi_i$ is tangent to $\omega_1$, $\phi_{i-1}$, and $\phi_{i+1}$, where $\phi_0 = \phi_8$ and $\phi_1 = \phi_9$. 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. What is $a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+j+k$. [i]Proposed by Eugene Chen [/i]

In a circle, parallel chords of lengths 2, 3, and 4 determine central angles of $\alpha$, $\beta$, and $\alpha + \beta$ radians, respectively, where $\alpha + \beta < \pi$. If $\cos \alpha$, which is a positive rational number, is expressed as a fraction in lowest terms, what is the sum of its numerator and denominator?

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 $a+b+c$.

Triangle $ABC$ is isosceles, with $AB=AC$ and altitude $AM=11.$ Suppose that there is a point $D$ on $\overline{AM}$ with $AD=10$ and $\angle BDC=3\angle BAC.$ Then the perimeter of $\triangle ABC$ may be written in the form $a+\sqrt{b},$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers.

In triangle $ABC$ let $A'$, $B'$, $C'$ respectively be the midpoints of the sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$. Furthermore let $L$, $M$, $N$ be the projections of the orthocenter on the three sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$, and let $k$ denote the nine-point circle. The lines $AA'$, $BB'$, $CC'$ intersect $k$ in the points $D$, $E$, $F$. The tangent lines on $k$ in $D$, $E$, $F$ intersect the lines $MN$, $LN$ and $LM$ in the points $P$, $Q$, $R$. Prove that $P$, $Q$ and $R$ are collinear.
