1. To find the circumradius of a triangle with side lengths 29, 29, and 40, we can use the formula:
R = abc / (4A)
where R is the circumradius, a, b, and c are the side lengths of the triangle, and A is the area of the triangle.
First, we need to find the area of the triangle. We can use Heron's formula:
s = (a + b + c) / 2
A = sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))
where s is the semiperimeter of the triangle.
In this case, a = b = 29 and c = 40. Therefore, s = (29 + 29 + 40) / 2 = 49.
A = sqrt(49(49-29)(49-29)(49-40)) = 420
Now we can use the formula for the circumradius:
R = abc / (4A) = (29)(29)(40) / (4(420)) = 29/6
So the circumradius of the triangle is 29/6.
2. Let's start by drawing a diagram of the triangle PQR:
```

Since M is the midpoint of PQ, we can label PM and MQ as 18 each (half of 36). Let X be the point on QR such that PX bisects angle QPR, as shown:
```
P

Q---------Y---R
```
Since PX bisects angle QPR, we have:
angle QPX = angle RPY
Therefore, triangles QPX and RPY are similar, and we can use their side lengths to find the length of PY.
Since M is the midpoint of PQ, we have:
PM = MQ = 18
Since PX bisects angle QPR, we have:
angle QPX = angle RPY
Therefore, triangles QPX and RPY are similar, and we have:
PX / RY = QX / PY
We can solve for PY to get:
PY = (QX * RY) / PX
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find QX and RY:
QX^2 + PX^2 = PQ^2
RY^2 + PY^2 = PR^2
Substituting for QX and RY, we get:
((PQ - PX) / 2)^2 + PX^2 = PQ^2
PY^2 + ((PR - PY) / 2)^2 = PR^2
Simplifying each equation, we get:
5PX^2 - 2PQ * PX + PQ^2 = 0
5PY^2 - 2PR * PY + PR^2 = 0
Using the quadratic formula to solve for PX and PY, we get:
PX = PQ / 5 = 36 / 5
PY = PR / 5 = 22 / 5
Now we can use the fact that MY = 8 to find the length of RY:
RY^2 + MY^2 = MR^2
RY^2 = MR^2 - MY^2
RY^2 = (PR / 2)^2 - 8^2
RY^2 = 225
RY = 15
Finally, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:
A = (1/2) * base * height
to find the area of triangle PYR:
A = (1/2) * PY * RY = (1/2) * (22/5) * 15 = 33
So the area of triangle PYR is 33.
