In an acute angle $ \vartriangle ABC $, let $ AD, BE, CF $ be their altitudes (with $ D, E, F $ lying on $ BC, CA, AB $, respectively). Let's call $ O, H $ the circumcenter and orthocenter of $ \vartriangle ABC $, respectively. Let $ P = CF \cap AO $. Suppose the following two conditions are true: $\bullet$ $ FP = EH $ $\bullet$ There is a circle that passes through points $ A, O, H, C $ Prove that the $ \vartriangle ABC $ is equilateral.

The map of a town shows a plane divided into equal equilateral triangles. The sides of these triangles are streets and their vertices are intersections; $6$ streets meet at each junction. Two cars start simultaneously in the same direction and at the same speed from points $A$ and $B$ situated on the same street (the same side of a triangle). After any intersection an admissible route for each car is either to proceed in its initial direction or turn through $120^o$ to the right or to the left. Can these cars meet? (Either prove that these cars won’t meet or describe a route by which they will meet.) [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/2/d/2c934bcd0c7fc3d9dca9cee0b6f015076abbdb.png[/img]

An equilateral triangle side $10$ is divided into $100$ equilateral triangles of side $1$ by lines parallel to its sides.

All three sides of an equilateral triangle are assumed to be reflective (except in the vertices), in such a way that they reflect the rays of light located in their plane, that fall on them and that come out of an interior point of the triangle. Determine the path of a ray of light that, starting from a vertex of the triangle reach another vertex of the same after reflecting successively on the three sides. Calculate the length of the path followed by the light assuming that the side of the triangle measures $1$ m.

$A, B, C, D$ are four distinct points such that triangles $ABC$ and $CBD$ are both equilateral. Find as many circles as you can, which are equidistant from the four points. How can these circles be constructed? [i]Remark: The distance between a point $P$ and a circle c is measured as follows: we join $P$ and the centre of the circle with a straight line, and measure how much we need to travel along thisline (starting from $P$) to hit the perimeter of the circle. If $P$ is an internal point of the circle, the distance is the length of the shorter such segment. The distance between a circle and itscentre is the radius of the circle.[/i]
