Every point with integer coordinates in the plane is the center of a disk with radius $1/1000$. (1) Prove that there exists an equilateral triangle whose vertices lie in different discs. (2) Prove that every equilateral triangle with vertices in different discs has side-length greater than $96$.

Q. A light source at the point $(0, 16)$ in the co-ordinate plane casts light in all directions. A disc(circle along ith it's interior) of radius $2$ with center at $(6, 10)$ casts a shadow on the X-axis. The length of the shadow can be written in the form $m\sqrt{n}$ where $m, n$ are positive integers and $n$ is squarefree. Find $m + n$.

$f$ is a function on the set of complex numbers such that $f(z)=1/(z*)$, where $z*$ is the complex conjugate of $z$. $S$ is the set of complex numbers $z$ such that the real part of $f(z)$ lies between $1/2020$ and $1/2018$. If $S$ is treated as a subset of the complex plane, the area of $S$ can be expressed as $m× \pi$ where $m$ is an integer. What is the value of $m$?

In a virtually-made world, each citizen, which is assumed to be a point (i.e. without area) and labelled as $1, 2, ...$. To fight against a pandemic, these citizens are required to get vaccinated. After they get vaccinated, they need to be observed for a period of time. Now assume the location that the citizens get observe is a circumference with radius $\frac{1}{4}$ on the plane. For the safety reason, it is required for distance between $m$-th citizen and $n$-th citizen $d_{m, n}$ satisfying the following: $(m+n)d_{m, n}\geq 1$ Here what we consider is the distance on the circumference i.e. the arc length of minor arc formed by two points. Then (a) Choose one of the following which fits the situation in reality. A. The location for observation can mostly have $8$ citizens. B. The location for observation can have the upper limit on the number of citizens which is larger than $8$. C. The location for observation can have any number of citizens. (b) Prove your answer in (a).

Consider the following subsets of the plane:$$C_1=\Big\{(x,y)~:~x>0~,~y=\frac1x\Big\} $$ and $$C_2=\Big\{(x,y)~:~x<0~,~y=-1+\frac1x\Big\}$$ Given any two points $P=(x,y)$ and $Q=(u,v)$ of the plane, their distance $d(P,Q)$ is defined by $$d(P,Q)=\sqrt{(x-u)^2+(y-v)^2}$$ Show that there exists a unique choice of points $P_0\in C_1$ and $Q_0\in C_2$ such that $$d(P_0,Q_0)\leqslant d(P,Q)\quad\forall ~P\in C_1~\text{and}~Q\in C_2.$$
