2018 Turkey Team Selection Test, 9

For a triangle $T$ and a line $d$, if the feet of perpendicular lines from a point in the plane to the edges of $T$ all lie on $d$, say $d$ focuses $T$. If the set of lines focusing $T_1$ and the set of lines focusing $T_2$ are the same, say $T_1$ and $T_2$ are equivalent. Prove that, for any triangle in the plane, there exists exactly one equilateral triangle which is equivalent to it.

[b]p1.[/b] Consider a triangular grid: nodes of the grid are painted black and white. At a single step you are allowed to change colors of all nodes situated on any straight line (with the slope $0^o$ ,$60^o$, or $120^o$ ) going through the nodes of the grid. Can you transform the combination in the left picture into the one in the right picture in a finite number of steps?
