The square $ABCD$ has to be decomposed into $n$ triangles (which are not overlapping) and which have all angles acute. Find the smallest integer $n$ for which there exist a solution of that problem and for such $n$ construct at least one decomposition. Answer whether it is possible to ask moreover that (at least) one of these triangles has the perimeter less than an arbitrarily given positive number.

Given a graph $G$, consider the following two quantities,
$\bullet$ Assign to each vertex a number in $\{0,1,2\}$ such that for every edge $e=uv$, the numbers assigned to $u$ and $v$ have sum at least $2$. Let $A(G)$ be the minimum possible sum of the numbers written to each vertex satisfying this condition.
$\bullet$ Assign to each edge a number in $\{0,1,2\}$ such that for every vertex $v$, the sum of numbers on all edges containing $v$ is at most $2$. Let $B(G)$ be the maximum possible sum of the numbers written to each edge satisfying this condition.
Prove that $A(G)=B(G)$ for every graph $G$.
[Note: This question is not original]
[Extra: Show that this statement is still true if we replace $2$ to $n$, if and only if $n$ is even (where we replace $\{0,1,2\}$ to $\{0,1,\cdots, n\}$)]

At the start of the game there are $ r$ red and $ g$ green pieces/stones on the table. Hojoo and Kestutis make moves in turn. Hojoo starts. The person due to make a move, chooses a colour and removes $ k$ pieces of this colour. The number $ k$ has to be a divisor of the current number of stones of the other colour. The person removing the last piece wins. Who can force the victory?

A rectangular pool table has vertices at $(0, 0) (12, 0) (0, 10),$ and $(12, 10)$. There are pockets only in the four corners. A ball is hit from $(0, 0)$ along the line $y = x$ and bounces off several walls before eventually entering a pocket. Find the number of walls that the ball bounces off of before entering a pocket.
