Kikoriki live on the shores of a pond in the form of an equilateral triangle with a side of $600$ m, Krash and Wally live on the same shore, $300$ m from each other. In summer, Dokko to Krash walk $900$ m, and Wally to Rosa - also $900$ m. Prove that in winter, when the pond freezes and it will be possible to walk directly on the ice, Dokko will walk as many meters to Krash as Wally to Rosa.

We are given six points in space with distinct distances, no three of them collinear. Consider all triangles with vertices among these points. Show that among these triangles there is one such that its longest side is the shortest side in one of the other triangles.
