Segment $AB$ intersects two equal circles, is parallel to the line joining their centres, and all the points of intersection of the segment and the circles lie between $A$ and $B$. From the point $A$ tangents to the circle nearest to $A$ are drawn, and from the point $B$ tangents to the circle nearest to $B$ are also drawn. It turns out that the quadrilateral formed by the four tangents extended contains both circles. Prove that a circle can be drawn so that it touches all four sides of the quadrilateral.

Let $ (a_{n})_{n\ge 1}$ be a sequence of positive integers satisfying $ (a_{m},a_{n}) = a_{(m,n)}$ (for all $ m,n\in N^ +$). Prove that for any $ n\in N^ + ,\prod_{d|n}{a_{d}^{\mu (\frac {n}{d})}}$ is an integer. where $ d|n$ denotes $ d$ take all positive divisors of $ n.$ Function $ \mu (n)$ is defined as follows: if $ n$ can be divided by square of certain prime number, then $ \mu (1) = 1;\mu (n) = 0$; if $ n$ can be expressed as product of $ k$ different prime numbers, then $ \mu (n) = ( - 1)^k.$

There is a $8\times 8$ table, drawn in a plane and painted in a chess board fashion. Peter mentally chooses a square and an interior point in it. Basil can draws any polygon (without self-intersections) in the plane and ask Peter whether the chosen point is inside or outside this polygon. What is the minimal number of questions suffcient to determine whether the chosen point is black or white?
