2003 Putnam, 5

Let $A$, $B$ and $C$ be equidistant points on the circumference of a circle of unit radius centered at $O$, and let $P$ be any point in the circle's interior. Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be the distances from $P$ to $A$, $B$, $C$ respectively. Show that there is a triangle with side lengths $a$, $b$, $c$, and that the area of this triangle depends only on the distance from $P$ to $O$.

Annie has a permutation $(a_1, a_2, \dots ,a_{2019})$ of $S=\{1,2,\dots,2019\}$, and Yannick wants to guess her permutation. With each guess Yannick gives Annie an $n$-tuple $(y_1, y_2, \dots, y_{2019})$ of integers in $S$, and then Annie gives the number of indices $i\in S$ such that $a_i=y_i$. (a) Show that Yannick can always guess Annie's permutation with at most $1200000$ guesses. (b) Show that Yannick can always guess Annie's permutation with at most $24000$ guesses. [i]Yannick Yao[/i]
