Some of the $n + 1$ cities in a country (including the capital city) are connected by one-way or two-way airlines. No two cities are connected by both a one-way airline and a two-way airline, but there may be more than one two-way airline between two cities. If $d_A$ denotes the number of airlines from a city $A$, then $d_A \le n$ for any city $A$ other than the capital city and $d_A + d_B \le n$ for any two cities $A$ and $B$ other than the capital city which are not connected by a two-way airline. Every airline has a return, possibly consisting of several connected flights. Find the largest possible number of two-way airlines and all configurations of airlines for which this largest number is attained.

Let us consider an infinite grid plane as shown below. We start with 4 points $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$, that form a square. We perform the following operation: We pick two points $X$ and $Y$ from the currant points. $X$ is reflected about $Y$ to get $X'$. We remove $X$ and add $X'$ to get a new set of 4 points and treat it as our currant points. For example in the figure suppose we choose $A$ and $B$ (we can choose any other pair too). Then reflect $A$ about $B$ to get $A'$. We remove $A$ and add $A'$. Thus $A'$, $B$, $C$, $D$ is our new 4 points. We may again choose $D$ and $A'$ from the currant points. Reflect $D$ about $A'$ to obtain $D'$ and hence $A'$, $B$, $C$, $D'$ are now new set of points. Then similar operation is performed on this new 4 points and so on. Starting with $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ can you get a bigger square by some sequence of such operations?

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.

This requires some imagination and creative thinking: Prove or disprove: There exists a solid such that, for all positive integers $n$ with $n \geq 3$, there exists a "parallel projection" (I hope the terminology is clear) such that the image of the solid under this projection is a convex $n$-gon.
