Let $T$ be a regular tetrahedron. Let $t$ be the regular tetrahedron whose vertices are the centers of the faces of $T$. Let $O$ be the circumcenter of either tetrahedron.

A (not necessarily regular) tetrahedron $A_1A_2A_3A_4$ is given in space. For each pair of indices $1\leq i<j\leq 4$, an ellipsoid with foci $A_i,A_j$ and string length $\ell_{ij}$, for positive numbers $\ell_{ij}$, is given (in all 6 ellipsoids were built).
For each $i=1,2$, a pair of points $X_i\neq X'_i$ was chosen so that $X_i, X'_i$ both belong to all three ellipsoids with $A_i$ as one of their foci. Prove that the lines $X_1X'_1, X_2X'_2$ share a point in space if and only if
\[\ell_{13}+\ell_{24}=\ell_{14}+\ell_{23}\]
[i]Remark: An [u]ellipsoid[/u] with foci $P,Q$ and string length $\ell>|PQ|$ is defined here as the set of points $X$ in space for which $|XQ|+|XP|=\ell$.[/i]

Consider the string of length $ 6$ composed of three characters $ a$, $ b$, $ c$. For each string, if two $ a$s are next to each other, or two $ b$s are next to each other, then replace $ aa$ by $ b$, and replace $ bb$ by $ a$. Also, if $ a$ and $ b$ are next to each other, or two $ c$s are next to each other, remove all two of them (i.e. delete $ ab$, $ ba$, $ cc$). Determine the number of strings that can be reduced to $ c$, the string of length 1, by the reducing processes mentioned above.

The plane angles at vertex $D$ of the pyramid $ABCD$ are equal to $\alpha$,$\beta$ and $\gamma$ ($\angle CDB = a$). An arbitrary point $M$ is taken on edge $CB$. A ball is inscribed in each of the pyramids $ABDM$ and $ACDM$. Let us draw through $D$ a plane distinct from $BCD$, tangent to both balls and not intersecting the segment connecting the centers of the balls. Let this plane intersect the segment $AM$ at point $P$. What is $\angle ADP$ equal to?
