Consider the hexagon which is formed by the vertices of two equilateral triangles (not necessarily equal) when the triangles intersect. Prove that the area of the hexagon is unchanged when one of the triangles is translated (without rotating) relative to the other in such a way that the hexagon continues to be defined.

Given an equilateral triangle with sidelength $k$ cm. With lines parallel to it's sides, we split it into $k^2$ small equilateral triangles with sidelength $1$ cm. This way, a triangular grid is created. In every small triangle of sidelength $1$ cm, we place exactly one integer from $1$ to $k^2$ (included), such that there are no such triangles having the same numbers. With vertices the points of the grid, regular hexagons are defined of sidelengths $1$ cm. We shall name as [i]value [/i] of the hexagon, the sum of the numbers that lie on the $6$ small equilateral triangles that the hexagon consists of . Find (in terms of the integer $k>4$) the maximum and the minimum value of the sum of the values of all hexagons .

An equilateral triangle $ABC$ has side a. A square is constructed on the outside of each side of the triangle. A right regular pyramid with sloping side $a$ is placed on each square. These pyramids are rotated about the sides of the triangle so that the apex of each pyramid comes to a common point above the triangle. Show that when this has been done, the other vertices of the bases of the pyramids (apart from the vertices of the triangle) form a regular hexagon.
