2017 LMT, Max Area

The goal of this problem is to show that the maximum area of a polygon with a fixed number of sides and a fixed perimeter is achieved by a regular polygon. (a) Prove that the polygon with maximum area must be convex. (Hint: If any angle is concave, show that the polygon’s area can be increased.) (b) Prove that if two adjacent sides have different lengths, the area of the polygon can be increased without changing the perimeter. (c) Prove that the polygon with maximum area is equilateral, that is, has all the same side lengths. It is true that when given all four side lengths in order of a quadrilateral, the maximum area is achieved in the unique configuration in which the quadrilateral is cyclic, that is, it can be inscribed in a circle. (d) Prove that in an equilateral polygon, if any two adjacent angles are different then the area of the polygon can be increased without changing the perimeter. (e) Prove that the polygon of maximum area must be equiangular, or have all angles equal. (f ) Prove that the polygon of maximum area is a regular polygon. PS. You had better use hide for answers.

Fiona had a solid rectangular block of cheese that measured $6$ centimeters from left to right, $5$ centimeters from front to back, and $4$ centimeters from top to bottom. Fiona took a sharp knife and sliced off a $1$ centimeter thick slice from the left side of the block and a $1$ centimeter slice from the right side of the block. After that, she sliced off a $1$ centimeter thick slice from the front side of the remaining block and a $1$ centimeter slice from the back side of the remaining block. Finally, Fiona sliced off a $1$ centimeter slice from the top of the remaining block and a $1$ centimeter slice from the bottom of the remaining block. Fiona now has $7$ blocks of cheese. Find the total surface area of those seven blocks of cheese measured in square centimeters.

In $\triangle ABC$, the interior sides of which are mirrors, a laser is placed at point $A_1$ on side $BC$. A laser beam exits the point $A_1$, hits side $AC$ at point $B_1$, and then reflects off the side. (Because this is a laser beam, every time it hits a side, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection). It then hits side $AB$ at point $C_1$, then side $BC$ at point $A_2$, then side $AC$ again at point $B_2$, then side $AB$ again at point $C_2$, then side $BC$ again at point $A_3$, and finally, side $AC$ again at point $B_3$. (a) Prove that $\angle B_3A_3C = \angle B_1A_1C$. (b) Prove that such a laser exists if and only if all the angles in $\triangle ABC$ are less than $90^{\circ}$.
