A ball is placed on a plane and a point on the ball is marked. Our goal is to roll the ball on a polygon in the plane in a way that it comes back to where it started and the marked point comes to the top of it. Note that We are not allowed to rotate without moving, but only rolling. Prove that it is possible. Time allowed for this problem was 90 minutes.

Alice and Bob stand atop two different towers in the Arctic. Both towers are a positive integer number of meters tall and are a positive (not necessarily integer) distance away from each other. One night, the sea between them has frozen completely into reflective ice. Alice shines her flashlight directly at the top of Bob's tower, and Bob shines his flashlight at the top of Alice's tower by first reflecting it off the ice. The light from Alice's tower travels $16$ meters to get to Bob's tower, while the light from Bob's tower travels $26$ meters to get to Alice's tower. Assuming that the lights are both shown from exactly the top of their respective towers, what are the possibilities for the height of Alice's tower?
