Sides of a triangle form an arithmetic sequence with common difference $2$, and its area is $6 \text{ cm }^2$. Find its sides.

An arithmetical progression (whose difference is not equal to zero) consists of natural numbers without any nines in its decimal notation. (a) Prove that the number of its terms is less than $100$. (b) Give an example of such a progression with $72$ terms. (c) Prove that the number of terms in any such progression does not exceed $72$. (V. Bugaenko and Tarasov, Moscow)

Consider an arithmetic progression made up of $100$ terms. If the sum of all the terms of the progression is $150$ and the sum of the even terms is $50$, find the sum of the squares of the $100$ terms of the progression.

Let $a$ and $d$ be two positive integers. Prove that there exists a constant $K$ such that every set of $K$ consecutive elements of the arithmetic progression $\{a+nd\}_{n=1}^\infty$ contains at least one number which is not prime.

Find the least value of $k\in \mathbb{N}$ with the following property: There doesn’t exist an arithmetic progression with 2019 members, from which exactly $k$ are integers.

Let $a_1, a_2,...$ a sequence of real numbers. For each positive integer $n$, we denote $m_n =\frac{a_1 + a_2 +... + a_n}{n}$. It is known that there exists a real number $c$ such that for any different positive integers $i, j, k$: $(i - j) m_k + (j - k) m_i + (k - i) m_j = c$. Prove that the sequence $a_1, a_2,..$ is arithmetic

Every term of an infinite geometric progression is also a term of a given infinite arithmetic progression. Prove that the common ratio of the geometric progression is an integer. (4)

Alice and Bob play a game on the infinite side of a checkered strip, in which the cells are numbered with consecutive integers from left to right (..., $-2$, $-1$, $0$, $1$, $2$, ...). Alice in her turn puts one cross in any free cell, and Bob in his turn puts zeros in any 2020 free cells. Alice will win if he manages to get such 4 cells marked with crosses, the corresponding cell numbers will form an arithmetic progression. Bob's goal in this game is to prevent Alice from winning. They take turns and Alice moves first. Will Alice be able to win no matter how Bob plays?

Is it possible to choose $1983$ distinct positive integers, all less than or equal to $10^5$, no three of which are consecutive terms of an arithmetic progression?

Determine the largest integer $n\geq 3$ for which the edges of the complete graph on $n$ vertices can be assigned pairwise distinct non-negative integers such that the edges of every triangle have numbers which form an arithmetic progression.

A sequence whose first term is positive has the property that any given term is the area of an equilateral triangle whose perimeter is the preceding term. If the first three terms form an arithmetic progression, determine all possible values of the first term.
