It is considered a regular polygon with $n$ sides, where $n(n>3)$ is an odd number that does not divide by 3. From the vertices of the polygon are arbitrarily chosen $m(0\leq m\leq n)$ vertices that are colored in red and the others in black. A triangle with the vertices at the vertices of the polygon it is considered $monocolor$ ,if all of its vertices are of the same color. Prove that the number of all $monocolor$ isosceles triangles with the vertices at the given polygon ends does not depend on the way of coloring of the vertices of the polygon. Determine the number of all these $monocolor$ isosceles triangles.

Evin and Jerry are playing a game with a pile of marbles. On each players' turn, they can remove $2$, $3$, $7$, or $8$ marbles. If they can’t make a move, because there's $0$ or $1$ marble left, they lose the game. Given that Evin goes first and both players play optimally, for how many values of $n$ from $1$ to $1434$ does Evin lose the game? [i]Proposed by Evin Liang[/i] [hide=Solution][i]Solution.[/i] $\boxed{573}$ Observe that no matter how many marbles a one of them removes, the next player can always remove marbles such that the total number of marbles removed is $10$. Thus, when the number of marbles is a multiple of $10$, the first player loses the game. We analyse this game based on the number of marbles modulo $10$: If the number of marbles is $0$ modulo $10$, the first player loses the game If the number of marbles is $2$, $3$, $7$, or $8$ modulo $10$, the first player wins the game by moving to $0$ modulo 10 If the number of marbles is $5$ modulo $10$, the first player loses the game because every move leads to $2$, $3$, $7$, or $8$ modulo $10$ In summary, the first player loses if it is $0$ mod 5, and wins if it is $2$ or $3$ mod $5$. Now we solve the remaining cases by induction. The first player loses when it is $1$ modulo $5$ and wins when it is $4$ modulo $5$. The base case is when there is $1$ marble, where the first player loses because there is no move. When it is $4$ modulo $5$, then the first player can always remove $3$ marbles and win by the inductive hypothesis. When it is $1$ modulo $5$, every move results in $3$ or $4$ modulo $5$, which allows the other player to win by the inductive hypothesis. Thus, Evin loses the game if n is $0$ or $1$ modulo $5$. There are $\boxed{573}$ such values of $n$ from $1$ to $1434$.[/hide]

In this problem we consider so-called [i]cartesian triangles[/i], that is, triangles $ABC$ with integer sides $BC=a,CA=b,AB=c$ and $\angle A=\frac{2\pi}3$. Unless noted otherwise, $\triangle ABC$ is assumed to be cartesian. (a) If $U,V,W$ are the projections of the orthocenter $H$ to $BC,CA,AB$, respectively, specify which of the segments $AU$, $BV$, $CW$, $HA$, $HB$, $HC$, $HU$, $HV$, $HW$, $AW$, $AV$, $BU$, $BW$, $CV$, $CU$ have rational length. (b) If $I$ is the incenter, $J$ the excenter across $A$, and $P,Q$ the intersection points of the two bisectors at $A$ with the line $BC$, specify those of the segments $PB$, $PC$, $QB$, $QC$, $AI$, $AJ$, $AP$, $AQ$ having rational length. (c) Assume that $b$ and $c$ are prime. Prove that exactly one of the numbers $a+b-c$ and $a-b+c$ is a multiple of $3$. (d) Assume that $\frac{a+b-c}{3c}=\frac pq$, where $p$ and $q$ are coprime, and denote by $d$ the $\gcd$ of $p(3p+2q)$ and $q(2p+q)$. Compute $a,b,c$ in terms of $p,q,d$. (e) Prove that if $q$ is not a multiple of $3$, then $d=1$. (f) Deduce a necessary and sufficient condition for a triangle to be cartesian with coprime integer sides, and by geometrical observations derive an analogous characterization of triangles $ABC$ with coprime sides $BC=a$, $CA=b$, $AB=c$ and $\angle A=\frac\pi3$.

Place a pebble at each [i]non-positive[/i] integer point on the real line, and let $n$ be a fixed positive integer. At each step we choose some n consecutive integer points, remove one of the pebbles located at these points and rearrange all others arbitrarily within these points (placing at most one pebble at each point). Determine whether there exists a positive integer $n$ such that for any given $N > 0$ we can place a pebble at a point with coordinate greater than $N$ in a finite number of steps described above.

Prove that any compound exchange may be effected in two days. It is assumed that under any exchange (simple or comp ound) each family occupies one fiat before and after the exchange and the family cannot split up . (A . Shnirelman , N .N . Konstantinov)
