Given that the width and the height of the rectangle are relatively prime positive integers, find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Around the convex quadrilateral $ABCD$, three rectangles are circumscribed . It is known that two of these rectangles are squares. Is it true that the third one is necessarily a square? (A rectangle is circumscribed around the quadrilateral $ABCD$ if there is one vertex $ABCD$ on each side of the rectangle).
Consider a cuboid$ ABCDA'B'C'D'$ (where $ABCD$ is a rectangle and $AA' \parallel BB' \parallel CC' \parallel DD'$) with $AA' = d$, $\angle ABD' = \alpha, \angle A'D'B = \beta$. Express the lengths x = $AB$, $y = BC$ in terms of $d$ and (acute) angles $\alpha, \beta$. Discuss condition of solvability.
There is $3 \times 4 \times 5$ - box with its faces divided into $1 \times 1$ - squares. Is it possible to place numbers in these squares so that the sum of numbers in every stripe of squares (one square wide) circling the box, equals $120$?
A rectangular building consists of $30$ square rooms situated like the cells of a $2 \times 15$ board. In each room there are three doors, each of which leads to another room (not necessarily different). How many ways are there to distribute the doors between the rooms so that it is possible to get from any room to any other one without leaving the building?

Its area, in square inches, is: $\textbf{(A)}\ 30\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ \frac{80}{3}\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 24\qquad \textbf{(D)}\ \frac{45}{2}\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 20$
Andriy and Olesya take turns (Andriy starts) in a $2 \times 1$ rectangle, drawing horizontal segments of length $2$ or vertical segments of length $1$, as shown in the figure below. [img]https://i.ibb.co/qWqWxgh/Kyiv-MO-2021-Round-1-7-2.png[/img] After each move, the value $P$ is calculated - the total perimeter of all small rectangles that are formed (i.e., those inside which no other segment passes). The winner is the one after whose move $P$ is divisible by $2021$ for the first time. Who has a winning strategy? [i]Proposed by Bogdan Rublov[/i]
