Consider f(n,m)f (n, m) the number of finite sequences of 11 's and 00 's such that each sequence that starts at 00 , has exactly n 00 's and mm 11 's, and there are not three consecutive 00 's or three 11 's. Show that if m,n>1m, n> 1 , then f(n,m)=f(n−1,m−1)+f(n−1,m−2)+f(n−2,m−1)+f(n−2,m−2)f (n, m) = f (n-1, m-1) + f (n-1, m-2) + f (n-2, m-1) + f (n-2, m-2)

In the accompanying figure, semicircles with centers AA and BB have radii 44 and 22 , respectively. Furthermore, they are internally tangent to the circle of diameter PQPQ . Also the semicircles with centers AA and BB are externally tangent to each other. The circle with center CC is internally tangent to the semicircle with diameter PQPQ and externally tangent to the others two semicircles. Determine the value of the radius of the circle with center CC . Image
