For each finite set $ U$ of nonzero vectors in the plane we define $ l(U)$ to be the length of the vector that is the sum of all vectors in $ U.$ Given a finite set $ V$ of nonzero vectors in the plane, a subset $ B$ of $ V$ is said to be maximal if $ l(B)$ is greater than or equal to $ l(A)$ for each nonempty subset $ A$ of $ V.$

(b) Show that, for any set $ V$ consisting of $ n \geq 1$ vectors the number of maximal subsets is less than or equal to $ 2n.$

Joaquim, José and João participate of the worship of triangle $ABC$. It is well known that $ABC$ is a random triangle, nothing special. According to the dogmas of the worship, when they form a triangle which is similar to $ABC$, they will get immortal. Nevertheless, there is a condition: each person must represent a vertice of the triangle. In this case, Joaquim will represent vertice $A$, José vertice $B$ and João will represent vertice $C$. Thus, they must form a triangle which is similar to $ABC$, in this order.
Suppose all three points are in the Euclidean Plane. Once they are very excited to become immortal, they act in the following way: in each instant $t$, Joaquim, for example, will move with constant velocity $v$ to the point in the same semi-plan determined by the line which connects the other two points, and which would create a triangle similar to $ABC$ in the desired order. The other participants act in the same way.
If the velocity of all of them is same, and if they initially have a finite, but sufficiently large life, determine if they can get immortal.

2017 LMT, Max Area
The goal of this problem is to show that the maximum area of a polygon with a fixed number of sides and a fixed perimeter is achieved by a regular polygon.
(a) Prove that the polygon with maximum area must be convex. (Hint: If any angle is concave, show that the polygon’s area can be increased.)
(b) Prove that if two adjacent sides have different lengths, the area of the polygon can be increased without changing the perimeter.
(c) Prove that the polygon with maximum area is equilateral, that is, has all the same side lengths.
It is true that when given all four side lengths in order of a quadrilateral, the maximum area is achieved in the unique configuration in which the quadrilateral is cyclic, that is, it can be inscribed in a circle.
(d) Prove that in an equilateral polygon, if any two adjacent angles are different then the area of the polygon
can be increased without changing the perimeter.
(e) Prove that the polygon of maximum area must be equiangular, or have all angles equal.
(f ) Prove that the polygon of maximum area is a regular polygon.
