$A, B, C, D$ are four distinct points such that triangles $ABC$ and $CBD$ are both equilateral. Find as many circles as you can, which are equidistant from the four points. How can these circles be constructed?
[i]Remark: The distance between a point $P$ and a circle c is measured as follows: we join $P$ and the centre of the circle with a straight line, and measure how much we need to travel along thisline (starting from $P$) to hit the perimeter of the circle. If $P$ is an internal point of the circle, the distance is the length of the shorter such segment. The distance between a circle and itscentre is the radius of the circle.[/i]

An equilateral triangle $ABC$ with center $O$ and radius $OA = R$ is given, and consider the seven regions that the lines of the sides determine on the plane. It is asked to draw and describe the region of the plane transformed from the two shaded regions in the attached figure, by the inversion of center $O$ and power $R^2$.

Lines parallel to the sides of an equilateral triangle are drawn so that they cut each of the sides into $10$ equal segments and the triangle into $100$ congruent triangles. Each of these $100$ triangles is called a “cell”. Also lines parallel to each of the sides of the original triangle are drawn through each of the vertices of the original triangle. The cells between any two adjacent parallel lines form a “stripe”. What is the maximum number of cells that can be chosen so that no two chosen cells belong to one stripe?
