We call the set $A\in \mathbb R^n$ CN if and only if for every continuous $f:A\to A$ there exists some $x\in A$ such that $f(x)=x$.
a) Example: We know that $A = \{ x\in\mathbb R^n | |x|\leq 1 \}$ is CN.
b) The circle is not CN.
Which one of these sets are CN?
1) $A=\{x\in\mathbb R^3| |x|=1\}$
2) The cross $\{(x,y)\in\mathbb R^2|xy=0,\ |x|+|y|\leq1\}$
3) Graph of the function $f:[0,1]\to \mathbb R$ defined by
\[f(x)=\sin\frac 1x\ \mbox{if}\ x\neq0,\ f(0)=0\]

On the set $\Sigma$ of points of the plane $\Pi$ we define the operation $*$ which maps each pair $(X, Y )$ of points in $\Sigma$ to the point $Z = X * Y$ that is symmetric to $X$ with respect to $Y .$ Consider a square $ABCD$ in $\Pi$. Is it possible, using the points $A, B, C$ and applying the operation $*$ finitely many times, to construct the point $D?$

The two points $P(8, 2)$ and $Q(5, 11)$ are considered in the plane. A mobile moves from $P$ to $Q$ according to a path that has to fulfill the following conditions: The moving part of $ P$ and arrives at a point on the $x$-axis, along which it travels a segment of length $1$, then it departs from this axis and goes towards a point on the $y$ axis, on which travels a segment of length $2$, separates from the $y$ axis finally and goes towards the point $Q$. Among all the possible paths, determine the one with the minimum length, thus like this same length.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcenter $O$, incenter $I$, and circumcircle $\Gamma$. It is known that $AB = 7$, $BC = 8$, $CA = 9$. Let $M$ denote the midpoint of major arc $\widehat{BAC}$ of $\Gamma$, and let $D$ denote the intersection of $\Gamma$ with the circumcircle of $\triangle IMO$ (other than $M$). Let $E$ denote the reflection of $D$ over line $IO$. Find the integer closest to $1000 \cdot \frac{BE}{CE}$.

Consider the real number axis (i. e. the $x$-axis of a Cartesian coordinate system). We mark the points $1$, $2$, ..., $2n$ on this axis. A flea starts at the point $1$. Now it jumps along the real number axis; it can jump only from a marked point to another marked point, and it doesn't visit any point twice. After the ($2n-1$)-th jump, it arrives at a point from where it cannot jump any more after this rule, since all other points are already visited. Hence, with its $2n$-th jump, the flea breaks this rule and gets back to the point $1$. Assume that the sum of the (non-directed) lengths of the first $2n-1$ jumps of the flea was $n\left(2n-1\right)$. Show that the length of the last ($2n$-th) jump is $n$.
