Show that $n$ has as many factorizations into an odd number of factors as into an even number of factors. (Factorizations into the same factors arranged in different order are considered different.)[b](N. 10)[/b]

We have two concentric circles. A polygon is circumscribed around the smaller circle and is contained entirely inside the greater circle. Perpendiculars from the common center of the circles to the sides of the polygon are extended till they intersect the greater circle. Each of the points obtained is connected with the endpoints of the corresponding side of the polygon . When is the resulting star-shaped polygon the unfolding of a pyramid?

The escalator of the department store, which at any given time can be seen at $75$ steps section, moves up one step in $2$ seconds. At time $0$, Juku is standing on an escalator step equidistant from each end, facing the direction of travel. He goes by a certain rule: one step forward, two steps back, then again one step forward, two back, etc., taking one every second in increments of one step. Which end will Juku finally get out and at what point will it happen?

Let $ABC$ be an isosceles triangle with base $AB$. We choose a point $P$ inside the triangle on altitude through $C$. The circle with diameter $CP$ intersects the straight line through $B$ and $P$ again at the point $D_P$ and the Straight through $A$ and $C$ one more time at point $E_P$. Prove that there is a point $F$ such that for any choice of $P$ the points $D_P , E_P$ and $F$ lie on a straight line.

What is the remainder of $2025\wedge (2024\wedge (2022\wedge (2021\wedge (2020\wedge ...\wedge (2\wedge 1) . . .)))))$ when it is divided by $2023$?
Here $\wedge$ is the exponential symbol, for example $2\wedge (3\wedge 2) = 2\wedge 9 = 512$. The power tower contains the integers from $2025$ to $1$ exactly once, except that the number $2023$ is missing.

Assume that $ A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_8$ are eight points taken arbitrarily on a plane. For a directed line $ l$ taken arbitrarily on the plane, assume that projections of $ A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_8$ on the line are $ P_1, P_2, \ldots, P_8$ respectively. If the eight projections are pairwise disjoint, they can be arranged as $ P_{i_1}, P_{i_2}, \ldots, P_{i_8}$ according to the direction of line $ l.$ Thus we get one permutation for $ 1, 2, \ldots, 8,$ namely, $ i_1, i_2, \ldots, i_8.$ In the figure, this permutation is $ 2, 1, 8, 3, 7, 4, 6, 5.$ Assume that after these eight points are projected to every directed line on the plane, we get the number of different permutations as $ N_8 \equal{} N(A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_8).$ Find the maximal value of $ N_8.$
