[b]p25.[/b] Suppose a circle of radius $20192019$ has area $A$. Let s be the side length of a square with area $A$. Compute the greatest integer less than or equal to $s$.

[b]p26.[/b] Given a $50 \times 50$ grid of squares, initially all white, define an operation as picking a square and coloring it and the four squares horizontally or vertically adjacent to it blue, if they exist. If a square is already colored blue, it will remain blue if colored again. What is the minimum number of operations necessary to color the entire grid blue?
If $n$ is the correct answer, an estimate of $e$ gives $\left\lfloor \frac{180}{5|n-e|+6}\right\rfloor$ points.
[b]p27.[/b] The sphere packing problem asks what percent of space can be filled with equally sized spheres without overlap. In three dimensions, the answer is $\frac{\pi}{3\sqrt2} \approx 74.05\%$ of space (confirmed as recently as $2017!$), so we say that the packing density of spheres in three dimensions is about $0.74$. In fact, mathematicians have found optimal packing densities for certain other dimensions as well, one being eight-dimensional space. Let d be the packing density of eight-dimensional hyperspheres in eightdimensional hyperspace. Compute the greatest integer less than $10^8 \times d$.
If $n$ is the correct answer, an estimate of e gives $\max \left\{ \lfloor 30-10^{-5}|n - e|\rfloor, 0 \right\}$ points.

Let $C$ be a cube with edges of length 2. Construct a solid with fourteen faces by cutting off all eight corners at $C,$ keeping the new faces perpendicular to the diagonals of the cube, and keeping the newly formed faces indentical. If at the conclusion of this process the fourteen faces so have the same area, find the area of each of face of the new solid.

2000 Brazil Team Selection Test, Problem 3
Consider an equilateral triangle with every side divided by $n$ points into $n+1$ equal parts. We put a marker on every of the $3n$ division points. We draw lines parallel to the sides of the triangle through the division points, and this way divide the triangle into $(n+1)^2$ smaller ones.
Consider the following game: if there is a small triangle with exactly one vertex unoccupied, we put a marker on it and simultaneously take markers from the two its occupied vertices. We repeat this operation as long as it is possible.
(a) If $n\equiv1\pmod3$, show that we cannot manage that only one marker remains.
(b) If $n\equiv0$ or $n\equiv2\pmod3$, prove that we can finish the game leaving exactly one marker on the triangle.

For positive integer $k,$ we say that it is a [i]Taurus integer[/i] if we can delete one element from the set $M_k=\{1,2,\cdots,k\},$ such that the sum of remaining $k-1$ elements is a positive perfect square. For example, $7$ is a Taurus integer, because if we delete $3$ from $M_7=\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7\},$ the sum of remaining $6$ elements is $25,$ which is a positive perfect square.
$(1)$ Determine whether $2021$ is a Taurus integer.
$(2)$ For positive integer $n,$ determine the number of Taurus integers in $\{1,2,\cdots,n\}.$
