2017 Junior Balkan MO, 4

Consider a regular 2n-gon $ P$,$A_1,A_2,\cdots ,A_{2n}$ in the plane ,where $n$ is a positive integer . We say that a point $S$ on one of the sides of $P$ can be seen from a point $E$ that is external to $P$ , if the line segment $SE$ contains no other points that lie on the sides of $P$ except $S$ .We color the sides of $P$ in 3 different colors (ignore the vertices of $P$,we consider them colorless), such that every side is colored in exactly one color, and each color is used at least once . Moreover ,from every point in the plane external to $P$ , points of most 2 different colors on $P$ can be seen .Find the number of distinct such colorings of $P$ (two colorings are considered distinct if at least one of sides is colored differently).

The kingdom of Anisotropy consists of $n$ cities. For every two cities there exists exactly one direct one-way road between them. We say that a [i]path from $X$ to $Y$[/i] is a sequence of roads such that one can move from $X$ to $Y$ along this sequence without returning to an already visited city. A collection of paths is called [i]diverse[/i] if no road belongs to two or more paths in the collection. Let $A$ and $B$ be two distinct cities in Anisotropy. Let $N_{AB}$ denote the maximal number of paths in a diverse collection of paths from $A$ to $B$. Similarly, let $N_{BA}$ denote the maximal number of paths in a diverse collection of paths from $B$ to $A$. Prove that the equality $N_{AB} = N_{BA}$ holds if and only if the number of roads going out from $A$ is the same as the number of roads going out from $B$.

Let $ X$ be a point outside of the square such that the distance from $ X$ to $ AC$ is equal to the distance from $ X$ to $ BD$, and also that $ AX \equal{} \frac {\sqrt {2}}{2}$.

Let $a, b_1, b_2, \dots, b_n, c_1, c_2, \dots, c_n$ be real numbers such that \[x^{2n} + ax^{2n - 1} + ax^{2n - 2} + \dots + ax + 1 = \prod_{i = 1}^{n}{(x^2 + b_ix + c_i)}\] Prove that $c_1 = c_2 = \dots = c_n = 1$. As a consequence, all complex zeroes of this polynomial must lie on the unit circle.
