A block of houses is a square. There is a courtyard there in which a gold medal has fallen. Whoever calculates how long the side of said apple is, knowing that the distances from the medal to three consecutive corners of the apple are, respectively, $40$ m, $60$ m and $80$ m, will win the medal.
Let a square $\mathbf P=P_1P_2P_3P_4$ be given in the plane. Determine the locus of all vertices $A$ of isosceles triangles $ABC,AB=BC$ such that the vertices $B,C$ are points of the square $\mathbf P.$
The points $A', B', C', D'$ are selected respectively on the sides $AB, BC, CD, DA$ of the cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$. It is known that $AA' = BB' = CC' = DD'$ and \[\angle AA'D' =\angle BB'A' =\angle CC'B' =\angle DD'C'.\]Prove that $ABCD$ is a square.
Let $d$ be an even positive integer.
John writes the numbers $1^2 ,3^2 ,\ldots,(2n-1)^2 $ on the blackboard and then chooses three of them, let them be ${a_1}, {a_2}, {a_3}$, erases them and writes the number $1+ \displaystyle\sum_{1\le i<j\leq 3} |{a_i} -{a_j}|$
He continues until two numbers remain written on on the blackboard.
Prove that the sum of squares of those two numbers is different than the numbers $1^2 ,3^2 ,\ldots,(2n-1)^2$.

The paper folding art origami is usually performed with square sheets of paper. Someone folds the sheet once along a line through the center of the sheet in orde to get a nonagon. Let $p$ be the perimeter of the nonagon minus the length of the fold, i.e. the total length of the eight sides that are not folds, and denote by s the original side length of the square. Express the area of the nonagon in terms of $p$ and $s$.
