A rectangle's bottom is at \(y=0\)
while its top corners are on the curve \(y=x{ (x-1) }^{ 2 }\) between \(x=0\) and \(x=1\). The maximum area of this rectangle can be expressed as
\[ \dfrac { a\sqrt { a } -b }{ c\sqrt { d } }\]
where \( a\) and \( d\) are prime numbers. What is the sum \(a+b+c+d?\)
(Don't count \( a\) twice)

Let
\[ f(x) = \sin^{2} x - \frac{1}{2} \sin2x \times \sin^{2}x + \frac{1}{3} \sin3x \times \sin^{3}x - \ldots\]
Then \( \displaystyle f \left( \frac{\pi}{12} \right) \) can be written as
\[ \tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac{ a - \sqrt{b}}{c} \right)\]
where \(b\) is square free & \(a,b,c \in\mathbb N\). Find the value of \(a+b+c\).

A cow is tied to a silo with radius \(r\) by a rope just long enough to reach the opposite end of the silo.
Find the area available for grazing by the cow.
Enter the answer for \(r=10\), rounded to the nearest hundredth.

\[ \displaystyle \lim _{ n\rightarrow \infty }{ \frac { \displaystyle \sum _{ r=1 }^{ { 2 }^{ n-1 }-1 }{ \tan ^{ 2 }{ \left (\frac { r\pi }{ { 2 }^{ n } } \right ) } } }{ { 4 }^{ n } } } \]
For positive integer \(n\), the limit evaluates to \( \dfrac a b\) for coprime positive integers \(a,b\). What is the value of \(a+b\)?
