You are walking along a road of constant width with sidewalks on each side. You can only walk on the sidewalks or cross the road perpendicular to the sidewalk. Coming up on a turn, you realize that you are on the “outside” of the turn; i.e., you are taking the longer way around the turn. The turn is a circular arc. Assuming that your destination is on the same side of the road as you are currently, let $\theta$ be the smallest turn angle, in radians, that would justify crossing the road and then crossing back after the turn to take the shorter total path to your destination. What is $\lfloor 100 \cdot \theta \rfloor$ ?

When one $12$th of his life passed, father returned from the army and $5$ years after he got a son. Son who lived for one half of fathers years, died $4$ years before his father. How many years lived his father, and how many years he had when his son was born?

A card deck consists of $1024$ cards. On each card, a set of distinct decimal digits is written in such a way that no two of these sets coincide (thus, one of the cards is empty). Two players alternately take cards from the deck, one card per turn. After the deck is empty, each player checks if he can throw out one of his cards so that each of the ten digits occurs on an even number of his remaining cards. If one player can do this but the other one cannot, the one who can is the winner; otherwise a draw is declared.
Determine all possible first moves of the first player after which he has a winning strategy.

Usain is walking for exercise by zigzagging across a $100$-meter by $30$-meter rectangular field, beginning at point $A$ and ending on the segment $\overline{BC}$. He wants to increase the distance walked by zigzagging as shown in the figure below $(APQRS)$. What angle $\theta=\angle PAB=\angle QPC=\angle RQB=\cdots$ will produce in a length that is $120$ meters? (Do not assume the zigzag path has exactly four segments as shown; there could be more or fewer.)
