Consider a trapezoid $ABCD,AB\parallel CD,AB>CD.$ Let us denote intersections of lines as follows: $E=AC\cap BD, F=AD\cap BC.$ Let $GH$ be a line such that $G\in AD,H\in BC, E\in GH,GH\parallel AB.$ Moreover, denote $K,L$ midpoints of the bases $AB,CD$ respectively. Show that (a) the points $K,L$ lie on the line $EF,$ (b) lines $AC,KH$ and $BD,KG$ are not parallel (denote $M=AC\cap KH,N=BD\cap KG$), (c) the points $F,M,N$ are collinear.

Consider a $2021$-by-$2021$ board of unit squares. For some integer $k$, we say the board is tiled by $k$-by-$k$ squares if it is completely covered by (possibly overlapping) $k$-by-$k$ squares with their corners on the corners of the unit squares. What is the largest integer k such that the minimum number of $k$-by-$k$ squares needed to tile the $2021$-by-$2021$ board is exactly equal to $100$?

Big candles cost 16 cents and burn for exactly 16 minutes. Small candles cost 7 cents and burn for exactly 7 minutes. The candles burn at possibly varying and unknown rates, so it is impossible to predictably modify the amount of time for which a candle will burn except by burning it down for a known amount of time. Candles may be arbitrarily and instantly put out and relit. Compute the cost in cents of the cheapest set of big and small candles you need to measure exactly 1 minute.
