For every triangle $ABC$, denote by $D(ABC)$ the triangle whose vertices are the tangency points of the incircle of $\vartriangle ABC$ with the sides. Assume that $\vartriangle ABC$ is not equilateral. (a) Prove that $D(ABC)$ is also not equilateral. (b) Find in the sequence $T_1 = \vartriangle ABC, T_{k+1} = D(T_k)$ for $k \in N$ a triangle whose largest angle $\alpha$ satisfies $0 < \alpha -60^o < 0.0001^o$

Given the natural number N, consider triples of different positive integers $(a, b, c)$ such that $a + b + c = N$. Take the largest possible system of these triples such that no two triples of the system have any common elements. Denote the number of triples of this system by $K(N)$.

There are $n$ parallel lines on a plane, and there is a set $S$ of distinct points. Each point in $S$ lies on one of the $n$ lines and is colored either red or blue. Determine the minimum value of $n$ such that if $S$ satisfies the following condition, it is guaranteed that there are infinitely many red points and infinitely many blue points. [list] [*] Each line contains at least one red point and at least one blue point from $S$. [*] Consider a triangle formed by three elements of $S$ located on three distinct lines. If two of the vertices of the triangle are red, there must exist a blue point, not one of the vertices, either inside or on the boundary of the triangle. Similarly, if two of the vertices are blue, there must exist a red point, not one of the vertices, either inside or on the boundary of the triangle. [/list]
