Vero had an isosceles triangle made of paper. Using scissors, he divided it into three smaller triangles and painted them blue, red and green. Having done so, he observed that: $\bullet$ with the blue triangle and the red triangle an isosceles triangle can be formed, $\bullet$ with the blue triangle and the green triangle an isosceles triangle can be formed, $\bullet$ with the red triangle and the green triangle an isosceles triangle can be formed. Show what Vero's triangle looked like and how he might have made the cuts to make this situation be possible.

Three friends who live in the same apartment building leave the building at the same time to go rock climbing on a cliff just outside of town. Susan walks to the cliff and climbs to the top of the cliff. Fred runs to the cliff twice as fast as Susan walks and climbs the top of the cliff at a rate that is only two-thirds as fast as Susan climbs. Ralph bikes to the cliff at a speed twice as fast as Fred runs and takes two hours longer to climb to the top of the cliff than Susan does. If all three friends reach the top of the cliff at the same time, how many minutes after they left home is that?

An $n$-digit positive integer is [i]cute[/i] if its $n$ digits are an arrangement of the set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and its first $k$ digits form an integer that is divisible by $k$, for $k = 1,2,\ldots,n$. For example 321 is a cute 3-digit integer because 1 divides 3, 2 divides 32, and 3 divides 321. How many cute 6-digit integers are there? $ \textbf{(A)}\ 0\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 1\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 2\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 3\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 4 $
