Given a positive integer $n$, an operation consists of replacing $n$ with either $2n-1$, $3n-2$ or $5n-4$. A number $b$ is said to be a [i]follower[/i] of number $a$ if $b$ can be obtained from $a$ using this operation multiple times. Find all positive integers $a < 2011$ that have a common follower with $2011$.

Consider the infinite grid of lattice points in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. Little D and Big Z play a game, where Little D first loses a shoe on an unmunched point in the grid. Then, Big Z munches a shoe-free plane perpendicular to one of the coordinate axes. They continue to alternate turns in this fashion, with Little D's goal to lose a shoe on each of $n$ consecutive lattice points on a line parallel to one of the coordinate axes. Determine all $n$ for which Little D can accomplish his goal.

For an isosceles triangle $ABC$ where $AB=AC$, it is possible to construct, using only compass and straightedge, an isosceles triangle $PQR$ where $PQ=PR$ such that triangle $PQR$ is similar to triangle $ABC$, point $P$ is in the interior of line segment $AC$, point $Q$ is in the interior of line segment $AB$, and point $R$ is in the interior of line segment $BC$. Describe one method of performing such a construction. Your method should work on every isosceles triangle $ABC$, except that you may choose an upper limit or lower limit on the size of angle $BAC$.
