Determine all positive integers $n$ such that the following statement holds: If a convex polygon with with $2n$ sides $A_1 A_2 \ldots A_{2n}$ is inscribed in a circle and $n-1$ of its $n$ pairs of opposite sides are parallel, which means if the pairs of opposite sides \[(A_1 A_2, A_{n+1} A_{n+2}), (A_2 A_3, A_{n+2} A_{n+3}), \ldots , (A_{n-1} A_n, A_{2n-1} A_{2n})\] are parallel, then the sides \[ A_n A_{n+1}, A_{2n} A_1\] are parallel as well.

On a plane, given a square $D$ with side length 1 and a line which intersects with $D$. For the solid obtained by a rotation of $D$ about the line as the axis, answer the following questions: (1) Suppose that the line $l$ on a plane the same with $D$ isn't parallel to any edges. Prove that the line by which the volume of the solid is maximized has only intersection point with $D$. Note that the line as axis of rotation is parallel to $l$. (2) Find the possible maximum volume for which all solid formed by the rotation axis as line intersecting with $D$. [i]2011 Tokyo Institute of Technology entrance exam, Problem 4[/i]

Ana, Bob, and Cao bike at constant rates of $8.6$ meters per second, $6.2$ meters per second, and $5$ meters per second, respectively. They all begin biking at the same time from the northeast corner of a rectangular field whose longer side runs due west. Ana starts biking along the edge of the field, initially heading west, Bob starts biking along the edge of the field, initially heading south, and Cao bikes in a straight line across the field to a point D on the south edge of the field. Cao arrives at point D at the same time that Ana and Bob arrive at D for the first time. The ratio of the field's length to the field's width to the distance from point D to the southeast corner of the field can be represented as $p : q : r$, where $p$, $q$, and $r$ are positive integers with p and q relatively prime. Find $p + q + r$.

Rosemonde is stacking spheres to make pyramids. She constructs two types of pyramids $S_n$ and $T_n$. The pyramid $S_n$ has $n$ layers, where the top layer is a single sphere and the $i^{th}$ layer is an $i\times $i square grid of spheres for each $2 \le i \le n$. Similarly, the pyramid $T_n$ has $n$ layers where the top layer is a single sphere and the $i^{th}$ layer is $\frac{i(i+1)}{2}$ spheres arranged into an equilateral triangle for each $2 \le i \le n$.

The plane is divided into equilateral triangles of side length $1$. Consider a equilateral triangle of side length $n$ whose sides lie on the grid lines. On every grid point on the edge and inside of this triangle lies a stone. In a move, a unit triangle is selected, which has exactly $2$ corners with is covered with a stone. The two stones are removed, and the third corner is turned a new stone was laid. For which $n$ is it possible that after finitely many moves only one stone left?
