Let n be a set of integers. $S(n)$ is defined as the sum of the elements of n. $T=\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$ and A and B are subsets of T such that A $\cup$ $B=T$ and A $\cap$ $B=\varnothing$. The probability that $S(A)\geq4S(B)$ can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$. Compute $p+q$.

Let $C$ be a circle of radius $1$ and $O$ its center. Let $\overline{AB}$ be a chord of the circle and $D$ a point on $\overline{AB}$ such that $OD =\frac{\sqrt2}{2}$ such that $D$ is closer to $ A$ than it is to $ B$, and if the perpendicular line at $D$ with respect to $\overline{AB}$ intersects the circle at $E $and $F$, $AD = DE$. The area of the region of the circle enclosed by $\overline{AD}$, $\overline{DE}$, and the minor arc $AE$ may be expressed as $\frac{a + b\sqrt{c} + d\pi}{e}$ where $a, b, c, d, e$ are integers, gcd $(a, b, d, e) = 1$, and $c$ is squarefree. Find $a + b + c + d + e$
