A projectile in flight is observed simultaneously from four radio stations which are situated at the corners of a square of side $b$. The distances of the projectile from the four stations, taken in order around the square, are found to be $R_1 , R_2 , R_3 $ and $R_4$. Show that $$R_{1}^{2}+ R_{3}^{2}= R_{2}^{2}+ R_{4}^{2}.$$ Show also that the height $h$ of the projectile above the ground is given by $$h^{2}=- \frac{1}{2} b^2 +\frac{1}{4}(R_{1}^{2}+R_{2}^{2}+R_{3}^{2}+R_{4}^{2}) -\frac{1}{8 b^{2}}(R_{1}^{4}+R_{2}^{4}+R_{3}^{4}+R_{4}^{4}- 2 R_{1}^{2}R_{3}^{2} -2 R_{2}^{2} R_{4}^{2}).$$

Alice drew a regular $2021$-gon in the plane. Bob then labeled each vertex of the $2021$-gon with a real number, in such a way that the labels of consecutive vertices differ by at most $1$. Then, for every pair of non-consecutive vertices whose labels differ by at most $1$, Alice drew a diagonal connecting them. Let $d$ be the number of diagonals Alice drew. Find the least possible value that $d$ can obtain.
