Square ABCD has side length 7. Let $A_1$, $B_1$, $C_1$, and $D_1$ be points on rays $\overrightarrow{AB}$, $\overrightarrow{BC}$, $\overrightarrow{CD}$, and $\overrightarrow{DA}$, respectively, where each point is $3$ units from the end of the ray so that $A_1B_1C_1D_1$ forms a second square as shown. SImilarly, let $A_2$, $B_2$, $C_2$, and $D_2$ be points on segments $A_1B_1$, $B_1C_1$, $C_1D_1$, and $D_1A_1$, respectively, forming another square where $A_2$ divides segment $A_1B_1$ into two pieces whose lengths are in the same ratio as $AA_1$ is to $A_1B$. Continue this process to construct square $A_nB_nC_nD_n$ for each positive integer $n$. Find the total of all the perimeters of all the squares.

The square $ABCD$ has to be decomposed into $n$ triangles (which are not overlapping) and which have all angles acute. Find the smallest integer $n$ for which there exist a solution of that problem and for such $n$ construct at least one decomposition. Answer whether it is possible to ask moreover that (at least) one of these triangles has the perimeter less than an arbitrarily given positive number.

On a plane, Bob chooses 3 points $A_0$, $B_0$, $C_0$ (not necessarily distinct) such that $A_0B_0+B_0C_0+C_0A_0=1$. Then he chooses points $A_1$, $B_1$, $C_1$ (not necessarily distinct) in such a way that $A_1B_1=A_0B_0$ and $B_1C_1=B_0C_0$.
Next he chooses points $A_2$, $B_2$, $C_2$ as a permutation of points $A_1$, $B_1$, $C_1$. Finally, Bob chooses points $A_3$, $B_3$, $C_3$ (not necessarily distinct) in such a way that $A_3B_3=A_2B_2$ and $B_3C_3=B_2C_2$. What are the smallest and the greatest possible values of $A_3B_3+B_3C_3+C_3A_3$ Bob can obtain?

Consider the cube $ABCDA'B'C'D'$ ($ABCD$ and $A'B'C'D'$ are the upper and lower bases, repsectively, and edges $AA', BB', CC', DD'$ are parallel). The point $X$ moves at a constant speed along the perimeter of the square $ABCD$ in the direction $ABCDA$, and the point $Y$ moves at the same rate along the perimiter of the square $B'C'CB$ in the direction $B'C'CBB'$. Points $X$ and $Y$ begin their motion at the same instant from the starting positions $A$ and $B'$, respectively. Determine and draw the locus of the midpionts of the segments $XY$.
