On each step of a ladder with $10$ steps there is a frog. Each of them can, in one jump, be placed on another step, but when it does, at the same time, another frog will jump the same number of steps in the opposite direction: one goes up and another goes down. Will the frogs manage to get all together on the same step?

Form a pentagon by taking a square of side length $1$ and an equilateral triangle of side length $1$ and placing the triangle so that one of its sides coincides with a side of the square. Then "circumscribe" a circle around the pentagon, passing through three of its vertices, so that the circle passes through exactly one vertex of the equilateral triangle, and exactly two vertices of the square. What is the radius of the circle? $\textbf{(A) }\dfrac23\hspace{14.4em}\textbf{(B) }\dfrac34\hspace{14.4em}\textbf{(C) }1$ $\textbf{(D) }\dfrac54\hspace{14.4em}\textbf{(E) }\dfrac43\hspace{14.4em}\textbf{(F) }\dfrac{\sqrt2}2$ $\textbf{(G) }\dfrac{\sqrt3}2\hspace{13.5em}\textbf{(H) }\sqrt2\hspace{13.8em}\textbf{(I) }\sqrt3$ $\textbf{(J) }\dfrac{1+\sqrt3}2\hspace{12em}\textbf{(K) }\dfrac{2+\sqrt6}2\hspace{11.9em}\textbf{(L) }\dfrac76$ $\textbf{(M) }\dfrac{2+\sqrt6}4\hspace{11.5em}\textbf{(N) }\dfrac45\hspace{14.4em}\textbf{(O) }2007$

A rectangle $\mathcal R$ is divided into a set $\mathcal S$ of finitely many smaller rectangles with sides parallel to the sides of $\mathcal R$ such that no three rectangles in $\mathcal S$ share a common corner. An ant is initially located at the bottom-left corner of $\mathcal R$. In one operation, we can choose a rectangle $r$ in $\mathcal S$ such that the ant is currently located at one of the corners of $r$, say $c$, and move the ant to one of the two corners of $r$ adjacent to $c$. Suppose that after a finite number of operations, the ant ends up at the top-right corner of $\mathcal R$. Prove that some rectangle $r$ in $\mathcal S$ was chosen in at least two operations.

A partition of a set \( A \) is a family of non-empty subsets of \( A \), such that any two distinct subsets in the family are disjoint, and the union of all subsets equals \( A \). We say that a partition of a set of integers \( B \) is [i]separated[/i] if each subset in the partition does [b]not[/b] contain consecutive integers. Prove that, for every positive integer \( n \), the number of partitions of the set \( \{1, 2, \dots, n\} \) is equal to the number of separated partitions of the set \( \{1, 2, \dots, n+1\} \). For example, \( \{\{1,3\}, \{2\}\} \) is a separated partition of the set \( \{1,2,3\} \). On the other hand, \( \{\{1,2\}, \{3\}\} \) is a partition of the same set, but it is not separated since \( \{1,2\} \) contains consecutive integers.
