The figure shows an arbitrary (green) triangle in the center. White squares were built on its sides to the outside. Some of their vertices were connected by segments, white squares were built on them again to the outside, and so on. In the spaces between the squares, triangles and quadrilaterals were formed, which were painted in different colors. Prove that
[list=a]
[*]all colored quadrilaterals are trapezoids;
[*]the areas of all polygons of the same color are equal;
[*]the ratios of the bases of one-color trapezoids are equal;
[*]if $S_0=1$ is the area of the original triangle, and $S_i$ is the area of the colored polygons at the $i^{\text{th}}$ step, then $S_1=1$, $S_2=5$ and for $n\geqslant 3$ the equality $S_n=5S_{n-1}-S_{n-2}$ is satisfied.

Among $100$ points in the plane, no three collinear, exactly $4026$ pairs are connected by line segments. Each point is then randomly assigned an integer from $1$ to $100$ inclusive, each equally likely, such that no integer appears more than once. Find the expected value of the number of segments which join two points whose labels differ by at least $50$.

Sarah and Darah play the following game. Sarah puts $ n$ coins numbered with $ 1,\dots,n$ on a table (Each coin is in HEAD or TAIL position.) At each step Darah gives a coin to Sarah and she (Sarah) let him (Dara) to change the position of all coins with number multiple of a desired number $ k$. At the end, all of the coins that are in TAIL position will be given to Sarah and all of the coins with HEAD position will be given to Darah. Prove that Sarah can put the coins in a position at the beginning of the game such that she gains at least $ \Omega(n)$ coins.

Given an isosceles triangle $ABC$ ($AB = AC$), the inscribed circle $\omega$ touches its sides $AB$ and $AC$ at points $K$ and $L$, respectively. On the extension of the side of the base $BC$, towards $B$, an arbitrary point $M$. is chosen.

A simple pendulum experiment is constructed from a point mass $m$ attached to a pivot by a massless rod of length $L$ in a constant gravitational field. The rod is released from an angle $\theta_0 < \frac{\pi}{2}$ at rest and the period of motion is found to be $T_0$. Ignore air resistance and friction.
At what angle $\theta_g$ during the swing is the tension in the rod the greatest?
$\textbf{(A) } \text{The tension is greatest at } \theta_g = \theta_0.\\
\textbf{(B) } \text{The tension is greatest at }\theta_g = 0.\\
