A regular hexagon with side length $1$ is given. Using a ruler construct points in such a way that among the given and constructed points there are two such points that the distance between them is $\sqrt7$.
Notes: ''Using a ruler construct points $\ldots$'' means: Newly constructed points arise only as the intersection of straight lines connecting two points that are given or already constructed. In particular, no length can be measured by the ruler.

Tangents $ l_1$ and $ l_2$ common to circles $ c_1$ and $ c_2$ intersect at point $ P$, whereby tangent points remain to different sides from $ P$ on both tangent lines. Through some point $ T$, tangents $ p_1$ and $ p_2$ to circle $ c_1$ and tangents $ p_3$ and $ p_4$ to circle $ c_2$ are drawn. The intersection points of $ l_1$ with lines $ p_1, p_2, p_3, p_4$ are $ A_1, B_1, C_1, D_1$, respectively, whereby the order of points on $ l_1$ is: $ A_1, B_1, P, C_1, D_1$.

In the plane the points with integer coordinates are the vertices of unit squares. The squares are coloured alternately black and white (as on a chessboard). For any pair of positive integers $ m$ and $ n$, consider a right-angled triangle whose vertices have integer coordinates and whose legs, of lengths $ m$ and $ n$, lie along edges of the squares. Let $ S_1$ be the total area of the black part of the triangle and $ S_2$ be the total area of the white part. Let $ f(m,n) \equal{} | S_1 \minus{} S_2 |$.
