All sides and diagonals of a convex $n$-gon, $n\ge 3$, are coloured one of two colours. Show that there exist $\left[\frac{n+1}{3}\right]$ pairwise disjoint monochromatic segments. [i](Two segments are disjoint if they do not share an endpoint or an interior point).[/i]

Each face of a cube is painted with a different color. How many distinct cubes can be created this way? (*Observation: The ways to color the cube are $6!$, since each time a color is used on one face, there is one fewer available for the others. However, this does not determine $6!$ different cubes, since colorings that differ only by rotation should be considered the same.*)
