Let $ABCD$ be a rectangle with: $AB=a$, $BC=b$. Inside the rectangle we have to exteriorly tangents circles such that one is tangent to the sides $AB$ and $AD$,the other is tangent to the sides $CB$ and $CD$. 1. Find the distance between the centers of the circles(using $a$ and $b$). 2. When the radiums of both circles change the tangency point between both of them changes, and describes a locus. Find that locus.

Every brick has $5$ holes in a line. The holes can be filled with bolts (fi tting in one hole) and braces (fi tting into two neighboring holes). No hole may remain free. One puts $n$ of these bricks in a line to form a pattern from left to right. In this line no two braces and no three bolts may be adjacent. How many diff erent such patterns can be produced with $n$ bricks?

Given a square $ABCD$ with side length $6$. We draw line segments from the midpoints of each side to the vertices on the opposite side. For example, we draw line segments from the midpoint of side $AB$ to vertices $C$ and $D$. The eight resulting line segments together bound an octagon inside the square. What is the area of this octagon?

Six cities are located at the vertices of a convex hexagon, all angles of which are equal. Three sides of this hexagon have length $a$, and the remaining three have length $b$ ($a \le b$). It is necessary to connect these cities with a network of roads so that from each city you can drive to any other (possibly through other cities). Find the shortest length of such a road network.
