Let $ABC$ be a fixed triangle in the plane. Let $D$ be an arbitrary point in the plane. The circle with center $D$, passing through $A$, meets $AB$ and $AC$ again at points $A_b$ and $A_c$ respectively. Points $B_a, B_c, C_a$ and $C_b$ are defined similarly. A point $D$ is called good if the points $A_b, A_c,B_a, B_c, C_a$, and $C_b$ are concyclic. For a given triangle $ABC$, how many good points can there be? (A. Garkavyj, A. Sokolov )

We took a non-equilateral acute-angled triangle and marked $4$ wonderful points in it: the centers of the inscribed and circumscribed circles, the center of gravity (the point of intersection of the medians) and the intersection point of altitudes. Then the triangle itself was erased. It turned out that it was impossible to establish which of the centers corresponds to each of the marked points. Find the angles of the triangle

Consider an arbitrary (optional convex) polygon. It's [i]chord [/i] is a segment whose ends lie on the boundary of the polygon, and itself belongs entirely to the polygon. Will there always be a chord of a polygon that divides it into two equal parts? Is it true that any polygon can be divided by some chord into parts, the area of each of which is not less than $\frac13$ the area of the polygon?

Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled triangle in which no two sides have the same length. The reflections of the centroid $G$ and the circumcentre $O$ of $ABC$ in its sides $BC,CA,AB$ are denoted by $G_1,G_2,G_3$ and $O_1,O_2,O_3$, respectively. Show that the circumcircles of triangles $G_1G_2C$, $G_1G_3B$, $G_2G_3A$, $O_1O_2C$, $O_1O_3B$, $O_2O_3A$ and $ABC$ have a common point.

Let $I$ be the incenter of triangle $ABC$, and $\ell$ be the perpendicular bisector of $AI$. Suppose that $P$ is on the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$, and line $AP$ and $\ell$ intersect at point $Q$. Point $R$ is on $\ell$ such that $\angle IPR = 90^{\circ}$.Suppose that line $IQ$ and the midsegment of $ABC$ that is parallel to $BC$ intersect at $M$.

A square $ (n \minus{} 1) \times (n \minus{} 1)$ is divided into $ (n \minus{} 1)^2$ unit squares in the usual manner. Each of the $ n^2$ vertices of these squares is to be coloured red or blue. Find the number of different colourings such that each unit square has exactly two red vertices.
