Α half-mile long train is traveling at a speed of $90$ miles per hour. As it enters a $1$ mile long tunnel, Steve starts running from the back of the train to the front of the train at a speed of $10$ miles per hour. When Steve is out of the tunnel, he stops running.

Six points $A, B, C, D, E,$ and $F$ lie in a straight line in that order. Suppose that $G$ is a point not on the line and that $AC=26, BD=22, CE=31, DF=33, AF=73, CG=40,$ and $DG=30.$ Find the area of $\triangle BGE.$
Baron and Peter are playing a game. They are given a simple finite graph $G$ with $n\ge 3$ vertex and $k$ edges that connects the vertices. First Peter labels two vertices A and B, and places a counter at A. Baron starts first. A move for Baron is move the counter along an edge. Peter's move is to remove an edge from the graph. Baron wins if he reaches $B$, otherwise Peter wins. Given the value of $n$, what is the largest $k$ so that Peter can always win?
