There are two paper figures: an equilateral triangle and a rectangle. The height of rectangle is equal to the height of the triangle and the base of the rectangle is equal to the base of the triangle. Divide the triangle into three parts and the rectangle into two, using straight cuts, so that with the five pieces can be assembled, without gaps or overlays, a equilateral triangle. To assemble the figure, each part can be rotated and / or turned around.

Prove that if triangle $A_1B_1C_1$ is scalene, then the three circumcircles of triangles $AA_1A_2, BB_1B_2$
and $CC_1C_2$ all pass through two common points.
(Note: a scalene triangle is one where no two sides have equal length.)

exactly one vertex in common, and every point in the plane lies on the boundary of at most two
of them?
b) Do there exist four squares in the plane such that each two have exactly one vertex in common, and every point in the plane lies on the boundary of at most two of them?

An equilateral triangle $ABC$ has side a. A square is constructed on the outside of each side of the triangle. A right regular pyramid with sloping side $a$ is placed on each square. These pyramids are rotated about the sides of the triangle so that the apex of each pyramid comes to a common point above the triangle. Show that when this has been done, the other vertices of the bases of the pyramids (apart from the vertices of the triangle) form a regular hexagon.
