Consider two polygons $ P$ and $ Q$. We want to cut $ P$ into some smaller polygons and put them together in such a way to obtain $ Q$. We can translate the pieces but we can not rotate them or reflect them. We call $ P,Q$ equivalent if and only if we can obtain $ Q$ from $ P$(which is obviously an equivalence relation).

Prove that $ P$ and $ Q$ are equivalent. b) Prove that if two triangles are not translation of each other, they are not equivalent. c) Find a necessary and sufficient condition for polygons $ P,Q$ to be equivalent.

Jonathan and Eric are standing one kilometer apart on a large, flat, empty field. Jonathan rotates an angle of $\theta = 120^o$ counterclockwise around Eric, then Eric moves half of the distance to Jonathan. They keep repeating the previous two movements in this order. After a very long time, their locations approach a point $P$ on the field. What is the distance, in kilometers, from Jonathan’s starting location to $P$?

A sequence of vertices $v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_k$ in a graph, where $v_i=v_j$ only if $i=j$ and $k$ can be any positive integer, is called a $\textit{cycle}$ if $v_1$ is attached by an edge to $v_2$, $v_2$ to $v_3$, and so on to $v_k$ connected to $v_1$. Rotations and reflections are distinct: $A,B,C$ is distinct from $A,C,B$ and $B,C,A$. Supposed a simple graph $G$ has $2013$ vertices and $3013$ edges. What is the minimal number of cycles possible in $G$?
