Benedek draws circles with the same center in the following way. The first circle he draws has radius $1$. Next, he draws a second circle such that the ring between the first and second circles has twice the area of the first circle. Next, he draws a third circle such that the ring between the second and third circles is three times the area of the first circle, and so on (see the diagram).
What is the smallest $n$ fow which the radius of the $n$-th circle is an integer greater than $1$?

Two equal non-intersecting wooden disks, one gray and one black, are glued to a plane. A triangle with one gray side and one black side can be moved along the plane so that the disks remain outside the triangle, while the colored sides of the triangle are tangent to the disks of the same color (the tangency points are not the vertices). Prove that the line that contains the bisector of the angle between the gray and black sides always passes through some fixed point of the plane.

Let ${n}$ and $k$ be positive integers. There are given ${n}$ circles in the plane. Every two of them intersect at two distinct points, and all points of intersection they determine are pairwise distinct (i. e. no three circles have a common point). No three circles have a point in common. Each intersection point must be colored with one of $n$ distinct colors so that each color is used at least once and exactly $k$ distinct colors occur on each circle. Find all values of $n\geq 2$ and $k$ for which such a coloring is possible.

A conjurer Arutyun and his assistant Amayak are going to show following super-trick. A circle is drawn on the board in the room. Spectators mark $2007$ points on this circle, after that Amayak
removes one of them. Then Arutyun comes to the room and shows a semicircle, to which the removed point belonged. Explain, how Arutyun and Amayak may show this super-trick.
