Let $n$ be a positive integer. Consider a figure of a equilateral triangle of side $n$ and splitted in $n^2$ small equilateral triangles of side $1$. One will mark some of the $1+2+\dots+(n+1)$ vertices of the small triangles, such that for every integer $k\geq 1$, there is [b]not[/b] any trapezoid(trapezium), whose the sides are $(1,k,1,k+1)$, with all the vertices marked. Furthermore, there are [b]no[/b] small triangle(side $1$) have your three vertices marked. Determine the greatest quantity of marked vertices.

Two distinct points $A$ and $B$ are marked on the left half of the parabola $y = x^2$. Consider any pair of parallel lines which pass through $A$ and $B$ and intersect the right half of the parabola at points $C$ and $D$. Let $K$ be the intersection point of the diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ of the obtained trapezoid $ABCD$. Let $M, N$ be the midpoints of the bases of $ABCD$. Prove that the difference $KM - KN$ depends only on the choice of points $A$ and $B$ but does not depend on the pair of parallel lines described above.
