In a plane we are given two distinct points $A,B$ and two lines $a, b$ passing through $B$ and $A$ respectively $(a \ni B, b \ni A)$ such that the line $AB$ is equally inclined to a and b. Find the locus of points $M$ in the plane such that the product of distances from $M$ to $A$ and a equals the product of distances from $M$ to $B$ and $b$ (i.e., $MA \cdot MA' = MB \cdot MB'$, where $A'$ and $B'$ are the feet of the perpendiculars from $M$ to $a$ and $b$ respectively).

Given a rectangle $\mathcal{R}$ of area $100000 $, Pancho must completely cover the rectangle $\mathcal{R}$ with a finite number of rectangles with sides parallel to the sides of $\mathcal{R}$ . Next, Martín colors some rectangles of Pancho's cover red so that no two red rectangles have interior points in common. If the red area is greater than $0.00001$, Martin wins. Otherwise, Pancho wins. Prove that Pancho can cover to ensure victory,

Show that $ \rho (f)$ changes continously over $ f$. It means for every bijection $ f: S^1\rightarrow S^1$ and $ \epsilon > 0$ there is $ \delta > 0$ such that if $ g: S^1\rightarrow S^1$ is a bijection such that $ \parallel{}f \minus{} g\parallel{} < \delta$ then $ |\rho(f) \minus{} \rho(g)| < \epsilon$.
Note that $ \rho(f)$ is the rotatation number of $ f$ and $ \parallel{}f \minus{} g\parallel{} \equal{} \sup\{|f(x) \minus{} g(x)| | x\in S^1\}$.

Let $\Gamma$ be a circle and let $d$ be a line such that $\Gamma$ and $d$ have no common points. Further, let $AB$ be a diameter of the circle $\Gamma$; assume that this diameter $AB$ is perpendicular to the line $d$, and the point $B$ is nearer to the line $d$ than the point $A$. Let $C$ be an arbitrary point on the circle $\Gamma$, different from the points $A$ and $B$. Let $D$ be the point of intersection of the lines $AC$ and $d$. One of the two tangents from the point $D$ to the circle $\Gamma$ touches this circle $\Gamma$ at a point $E$; hereby, we assume that the points $B$ and $E$ lie in the same halfplane with respect to the line $AC$. Denote by $F$ the point of intersection of the lines $BE$ and $d$. Let the line $AF$ intersect the circle $\Gamma$ at a point $G$, different from $A$.

The following isosceles trapezoid consists of equal equilateral triangles with side length $1$. The side $A_1E$ has length $3$ while the larger base $A_1A_n$ has length $n-1$. Starting from the point $A_1$ we move along the segments which are oriented to the right and up(obliquely right or left). Calculate (in terms of $n$ or not) the number of all possible paths we can follow, in order to arrive at points $B,\Gamma,\Delta, E$, if $n$ is an integer greater than $3$.
