As everyone knows, the people of [i]Plane Land[/i] love Planimetrics. Therefore, they imagine their country as completely planar, every city in the country as a geometric point and every road as the line segment connecting two points. Additionally to the existing cities, it is possible to build [i]roundabouts[/i], i.e. points in the road network from where at least two roads emanate. All road crossings or junctions are build as roundabouts. Via this route network, every two cities should be connected by a sequence of roads and possibly roundabouts. In Plane Land, the length of a road is taken as the geometric length of the corresponding line segment. The ingenious road engineer Armin Asphalt presents a new road map, of which it is known that there is no road network with a smaller total length of all roads. Moreover, there is no road map with the same total length of all roads and fewer roundabouts. Prove that in the road map of Armin Asphalt, at most three roads emanate from each city, and exactly three from each roundabout.

In a quadrilateral, the two segments connecting the midpoints of its opposite sides are equal in length. Prove that the diagonals of the quadrilateral are perpendicular. (In other words, let $M,N,P,$ and $Q$ be the midpoints of sides $AB,BC,CD,$ and $DA$ in quadrilateral $ABCD$. It is known that segments $MP$ and $NQ$ are equal in length. Prove that $AC$ and $BD$ are perpendicular.)
