An arbitrary triangle ABC is given. There are 2 lines, p and q, that are not parallel to each other and they are not perpendicular to the sides of the triangle. The perpendicular lines through points A, B and C to line p we denote with $ p_a, p_b, p_c $ and the perpendicular lines to line q we denote with $ q_a, q_b, q_c $. Let the intersection points of the lines $ p_a, q_a, p_b, q_b, p_c $ and $ q_c $ with $ q_b, p_b, q_c, p_c, q_a $ and $ p_a $ are $ K, L, P, Q, N $ and $ M $. Prove that $ KL, MN $ and $ PQ $ intersect in one point.

A game consists of pieces of the shape of a regular tetrahedron of side $1$. Each face of each piece is painted in one of $n$ colors, and by this, the faces of one piece are not necessarily painted in different colors. Determine the maximum possible number of pieces, no two of which are identical.

All edges of a polyhedron are painted with red or yellow. For an angle of a facet, if the edges determining it are of different colors, then the angle is called [i]excentric[/i]. The[i] excentricity [/i]of a vertex $A$, namely $S_A$, is defined as the number of excentric angles it has. Prove that there exist two vertices $B$ and $C$ such that $S_B + S_C \leq 4$.

Let $a,b$ be positive even integers. A rectangle with side lengths $a$ and $b$ is split into $a \cdot b$ unit squares. Anja and Bernd take turns and in each turn they color a square that is made of those unit squares. The person that can't color anymore, loses. Anja starts. Find all pairs $(a,b)$, such that she can win for sure. [b]Extension:[/b] Solve the problem for positive integers $a,b$ that don't necessarily have to be even. [b]Note:[/b] The [i]extension[/i] actually was proposed at first. But since this is a homework competition that goes over three months and some cases were weird, the problem was changed to even integers.
