There are given one black box and $n$ white boxes ($n$ is a random natural number). White boxes are numbered with the numbers $1,2,\ldots,n$. In them are put $n$ balls. It is allowed the following rearrangement of the balls: if in the box with number $k$ there are exactly $k$ balls, that box is made empty - one of the balls is put in the black box and the other $k-1$ balls are put in the boxes with numbers: $1,2,\ldots,k-1$.

On an infinite triangular lattice, there is a single atom at a lattice point. We allow for four operations as illustrated in Figure 1. In words, one could take an existing atom, split it into three atoms, and place them at adjacent lattice points in one of the two displayed fashions (a “split”). One could also reverse the process, i.e. taking three existing atoms in the displayed configurations, and merge them into a single atom at the center (a “merge”).

Assume that, after finitely many operations, there is again only a single atom remaining on the lattice. Show that this is possible if and only if the final atom is contained in the sublattice implied by Figure 2.

Isosceles triangle $ABC$, with $AB=AC$, is inscribed in circle $\omega$. Let $D$ be an arbitrary point inside $BC$ such that $BD\neq DC$. Ray $AD$ intersects $\omega$ again at $E$ (other than $A$). Point $F$ (other than $E$) is chosen on $\omega$ such that $\angle DFE = 90^\circ$. Line $FE$ intersects rays $AB$ and $AC$ at points $X$ and $Y$, respectively. Prove that $\angle XDE = \angle EDY$.
