Points $A_1, A_2, ..., A_{10}$ are marked on a circle clockwise. It is known that these points can be divided into pairs of points symmetric with respect to the centre of the circle. Initially at each marked point there was a grasshopper. Every minute one of the grasshoppers jumps over its neighbour along the circle so that the resulting distance between them doesn't change. It is not allowed to jump over any other grasshopper and to land at a point already occupied. It occurred that at some moment nine grasshoppers were found at points $A_1, A_2, ... , A_9$ and the tenth grasshopper was on arc $A_9A_{10}A_1$. Is it necessarily true that this grasshopper was exactly at point $A_{10}$?

There are $6$ points marked on the plane. Find the greatest possible number of acute triangles with vertices at the marked points.

An ant decides to walk on the perimeter of an $ABC$ triangle. The ant can start at any vertex. Whenever the ant is in a vertex, it chooses one of the adjacent vertices and walks directly (in a straight line) to the chosen vertex. a) In how many ways can the ant walk around each vertex exactly twice? b) In how many ways can the ant walk around each vertex exactly three times? Note: For each item, consider that the starting vertex is visited.

A tetrahedron $ABCD$ is divided into five polyhedra so that each face of the tetrahedron is a face of (exactly) one polyhedron, and that the intersection of any two of the polyhedra is either a common vertex, a common edge, or a common face.
