The map of a town shows a plane divided into equal equilateral triangles. The sides of these triangles are streets and their vertices are intersections; $6$ streets meet at each junction. Two cars start simultaneously in the same direction and at the same speed from points $A$ and $B$ situated on the same street (the same side of a triangle). After any intersection an admissible route for each car is either to proceed in its initial direction or turn through $120^o$ to the right or to the left. Can these cars meet? (Either prove that these cars won’t meet or describe a route by which they will meet.)

Given an equilateral $\Delta ABC$, in which ${{A} _ {1}}, {{B} _ {1}}, {{C} _ {1}}$ are the midpoint of the sides $ BC, \, \, AC, \, \, AB$ respectively. The line $l$ passes through the vertex $A$, we denote by $P, Q$ the projection of the points $B, C$ on the line $l$, respectively (the line $ l $ and the point $Q, \, \, A, \, \, P$ are located as shown in fig.). Denote by $T $ the intersection point of the lines ${{B} _ {1}} P$ and ${{C} _ {1}} Q$. Prove that the line ${{A} _ {1}} T$ is perpendicular to the line $l$.

Kikoriki live on the shores of a pond in the form of an equilateral triangle with a side of $600$ m, Krash and Wally live on the same shore, $300$ m from each other. In summer, Dokko to Krash walk $900$ m, and Wally to Rosa - also $900$ m. Prove that in winter, when the pond freezes and it will be possible to walk directly on the ice, Dokko will walk as many meters to Krash as Wally to Rosa.

The shape of a dog kennel from above is an equilateral triangle with side length $1$ m and its corners in points $A, B$ and $C$, as shown in the picture. The chain of the dog is of length $6$ m and its end is fixed to the corner in point $A$. The dog himself is in point $K$ in a way that the chain is tight and points $K, A$ and $B$ are on the same straight line. The dog starts to move clockwise around the kennel, holding the chain tight all the time. How long is the walk of the dog until the moment when the chain is tied round the kennel at full?
