A pair of positive integers $(x, y)$ is [i] good [/i] if they satisfy $\text{rad}(x) = \text{rad}(y)$ and they do not divide each-other. Given coprime positive integers $a$ and $b$, show that there exist infinitely many $n$ for which there exists a positive integer $m$ such that $(a^n + bm, b^n + am)$ is [i] good[/i].

Let $n$ be an integer. Dayang are given $n$ sticks of lengths $1,2, 3,..., n$. She may connect the sticks at their ends to form longer sticks, but cannot cut them. She wants to use all these sticks to form a square. For example, for $n = 8$, she can make a square of side length $9$ using these connected sticks: $1 + 8$, $2 + 7$, $3 + 6$, and $4 + 5$. How many values of $n$, with $1 \le n \le 2018$, that allow her to do this?

trapezoid has side lengths $10, 10, 10$, and $22$. Each side of the trapezoid is the diameter of a semicircle with the two semicircles on the two parallel sides of the trapezoid facing outside the trapezoid and the other two semicircles facing inside the trapezoid as shown. The region bounded by these four semicircles has area $m + n\pi$, where m and n are positive integers. Find $m + n$.

A train consist of $2010$ wagons containing gold coins, all of the same shape. Any two coins have equal weight provided that they are in the same wagon, and differ in weight if they are in different ones. The weight of a coin is one of the positive reals \begin{align*} m_1 <m_2 <\ldots <m_{2010} \end{align*} Each wagon is marked by a label with one of the numbers $m_1,m_2, \ldots , m_{2010}$ (the numbers on different labels are different). A controller has a pair of scales (allowing only to compare masses) at his disposal. During each measurement he can use an arbitrary number of coins from any of the wagons. The controller has the task to establish: if all labels show rightly the common weight of the coins in a wagon or if there exists at least one wrong label. What is the least number of measurement that the controller has to perform to accomplish his task?
