Consider in a plane $ P$ the points $ O,A_1,A_2,A_3,A_4$ such that \[ \sigma(OA_iA_j) \geq 1 \quad \forall i, j \equal{} 1, 2, 3, 4, i \neq j.\] where $ \sigma(OA_iA_j)$ is the area of triangle $ OA_iA_j.$ Prove that there exists at least one pair $ i_0, j_0 \in \{1, 2, 3, 4\}$ such that \[ \sigma(OA_iA_j) \geq \sqrt{2}.\]

In the following, a [i]word[/i] will mean a finite sequence of letters "$a$" and "$b$". The [i]length[/i] of a word will mean the number of the letters of the word. For instance, $abaab$ is a word of length $5$. There exists exactly one word of length $0$, namely the empty word. A word $w$ of length $\ell$ consisting of the letters $x_1$, $x_2$, ..., $x_{\ell}$ in this order is called a [i]palindrome[/i] if and only if $x_j=x_{\ell+1-j}$ holds for every $j$ such that $1\leq j\leq\ell$. For instance, $baaab$ is a palindrome; so is the empty word. For two words $w_1$ and $w_2$, let $w_1w_2$ denote the word formed by writing the word $w_2$ directly after the word $w_1$. For instance, if $w_1=baa$ and $w_2=bb$, then $w_1w_2=baabb$. Let $r$, $s$, $t$ be nonnegative integers satisfying $r + s = t + 2$. Prove that there exist palindromes $A$, $B$, $C$ with lengths $r$, $s$, $t$, respectively, such that $AB=Cab$, if and only if the integers $r + 2$ and $s - 2$ are coprime.

The numbers from $1$ to $2000$ are placed on the vertices of a regular polygon with $2000$ sides, one on each vertex, so that the following is true: If four integers $A, B, C, D$ satisfy that $1 \leq A<B<C<D \leq 2000$, then the segment that joins the vertices of the numbers $A$ and $B$ and the segment that joins the vertices of $C$ and $D$ do not intersect inside the polygon. Prove that there exists a perfect square such that the number diametrically opposite to it is not a perfect square.

Let $b\geq2$ and $w\geq2$ be fixed integers, and $n=b+w$. Given are $2b$ identical black rods and $2w$ identical white rods, each of side length 1. We assemble a regular $2n-$gon using these rods so that parallel sides are the same color. Then, a convex $2b$-gon $B$ is formed by translating the black rods, and a convex $2w$-gon $W$ is formed by translating the white rods.
