A [i]permutation[/i] of the set of positive integers $[n] = \{1, 2, . . . , n\}$ is a sequence $(a_1 , a_2 , \ldots, a_n ) $ such that each element of $[n]$ appears precisely one time as a term of the sequence. For example, $(3, 5, 1, 2, 4)$ is a permutation of $[5]$. Let $P (n)$ be the number of permutations of $[n]$ for which $ka_k$ is a perfect square for all $1 \leq k \leq n$. Find with proof the smallest $n$ such that $P (n)$ is a multiple of $2010$.

Consider a triangle $XYZ$ and a point $O$ in its interior. Three lines through $O$ are drawn, parallel to the respective sides of the triangle. The intersections with the sides of the triangle determine six line segments from $O$ to the sides of the triangle. The lengths of these segments are integer numbers $a, b, c, d, e$ and $f$ (see figure).
Prove that the product $a \cdot b \cdot c\cdot d \cdot e \cdot f$ is a perfect square.
