$(YUG 2)$ A park has the shape of a convex pentagon of area $50000\sqrt{3} m^2$. A man standing at an interior point $O$ of the park notices that he stands at a distance of at most $200 m$ from each vertex of the pentagon. Prove that he stands at a distance of at least $100 m$ from each side of the pentagon.

1986 IMO Shortlist, 12

To each vertex of a regular pentagon an integer is assigned, so that the sum of all five numbers is positive. If three consecutive vertices are assigned the numbers $x,y,z$ respectively, and $y<0$, then the following operation is allowed: $x,y,z$ are replaced by $x+y,-y,z+y$ respectively. Such an operation is performed repeatedly as long as at least one of the five numbers is negative. Determine whether this procedure necessarily comes to an end after a finite number of steps.

A convex pentagon $APBCQ$ is given such that $AB < AC$. The circle $\omega$ centered at point $A{}$ passes through $P{}$ and $Q{}$ and touches the segment $BC$ at point $R{}$. Let the circle $\Gamma$ centered at the point $O{}$ be the circumcircle of the triangle $ABC$. It is known that $AO \perp P Q$ and $\angle BQR = \angle CP R$. Prove that the tangents at points $P{}$ and $Q{}$ to the circle $\omega$ intersect on $\Gamma$.

Catherine lowers five matching wooden discs over bars placed on the vertices of a regular pentagon. Then she leaves five smaller congruent checkers these rods drop. Then she stretches a ribbon around the large discs and a second ribbon around the small discs. The first ribbon has a length of $56$ centimeters and the second one of $50$ centimeters. Catherine looks at her construction from above and sees an area demarcated by the two ribbons. What is the area of that area?
