A spacecraft landed on an asteroid. It is known that the asteroid is either a ball or a cube. The rover started its route at the landing site and finished it at the point symmetric to the landing site with respect to the center of the asteroid. On its way, the rover transmitted its spatial coordinates to the spacecraft on the landing site so that the trajectory of the rover movement was known. Can it happen that this information is not suffcient to determine whether the asteroid is a ball or a cube?
A paper cup has a base that is a circle with radius $r$, a top that is a circle with radius $2r$, and sides that connect the two circles with straight line segments as shown below. This cup has height $h$ and volume $V$. A second cup that is exactly the same shape as the first is held upright inside the first cup so that its base is a distance of $\tfrac{h}2$ from the base of the first cup. The volume of liquid that will t inside the first cup and outside the second cup can be written $\tfrac{m}{n}\cdot V$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.

4. Consider spherical surface $S$ which radius is $1$, central point $(0,0,1)$ in $xyz$ space. If point $Q$ move to points on S expect $(0,0,2)$. Let $R$ be an intersection of plane $z=0$ and line $l$ pass point $Q$ and point $P (1,0,2)$. Find the range of moving $R$, then illustrate it.
Four small spheres each with radius $6$ are each internally tangent to a large sphere with radius $17$. The four small spheres form a ring with each of the four spheres externally tangent to its two neighboring small spheres. A sixth intermediately sized sphere is internally tangent to the large sphere and externally tangent to each of the four small spheres. Its radius is $\frac{m}{n}$ , where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.
