Compute the exact value of a=1b=1gcd(a,b)(a+b)3. \sum_{a=1}^{\infty}\sum_{b=1}^{\infty} \frac{\gcd(a, b)}{(a + b)^3}. If necessary, you may express your answer in terms of the Riemann zeta function, Z(s)=n=11nsZ(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^s}, for integers s2s \geq 2.

Rectangle Pixelations

Let RR be the rectangle in the coordinate plane with corners (0,0)(0, 0), (20,0)(20, 0), (20,22)(20, 22), and (0,22)(0, 22), and partition RR into a 20×2220\times 22 grid of unit squares. For a given line in the coordinate plane, let its pixelation be the set of grid squares in RR that contain part of the line in their interior. If PP is a point chosen uniformly at random in RR, then compute the expected number of sets of grid squares that are pixelations of some line through PP.

In JMT\triangle JMT, JM=410JM=410, JT=49JT=49, and MJT>90\angle{MJT}>90^\circ. Let II and HH be the incenter and orthocenter of JMT\triangle JMT, respectively. The circumcircle of JIH\triangle JIH intersects JT\overleftrightarrow{JT} at a point PJP\neq J, and IH=HPIH=HP. Find MTMT.

Let Λ\Lambda denote the set of points (x,y)(x,y) in 2D space with integer coordinates such that 0x40\leq x\leq 4 and 0y20\leq y\leq 2. That is, Λ={(x,y)Z2:0x4, 0y2}. \Lambda=\{ (x,y) \in \mathbb{Z}^2: 0\leq x\leq 4, \ 0\leq y\leq 2 \}. Find the number of ways to connect points of Λ\Lambda with segments of length 2\sqrt{2} or 5\sqrt{5} such that the interior of any unit square with vertices in Λ\Lambda contains part of exactly one segment; an example is shown below (connections that differ by reflections are distinct). [asy] unitsize(1cm); dot((0,0)); dot((1,0)); dot((2,0)); dot((3,0)); dot((4,0)); dot((0,1)); dot((1,1)); dot((2,1)); dot((3,1)); dot((4,1)); dot((0,2)); dot((1,2)); dot((2,2)); dot((3,2)); dot((4,2)); draw((0,0)--(1,1)); draw((0,2)--(2,1)); draw((1,1)--(2,0)); draw((2,0)--(3,2)); draw((3,1)--(4,2)); draw((3,0)--(4,1)); [/asy]
