$(GDR 1)$ Find all real numbers $\lambda$ such that the equation $\sin^4 x - \cos^4 x = \lambda(\tan^4 x - \cot^4 x)$ $(a)$ has no solution, $(b)$ has exactly one solution, $(c)$ has exactly two solutions, $(d)$ has more than two solutions (in the interval $(0, \frac{\pi}{4}).$

Prove the following equality: $4 sin\frac{2\pi }{7}-tg \frac{\pi }{7}=\sqrt{7}$

Decompose the expression into real factors: \[E = 1 - \sin^5(x) - \cos^5(x).\]

Let $a,b,c$ be the lengths of the sides of a triangle, and $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ respectively, the angles opposite these sides. Prove that if \[ a+b=\tan{\frac{\gamma}{2}}(a\tan{\alpha}+b\tan{\beta}) \] the triangle is isosceles.

$(GBR 3)$ A smooth solid consists of a right circular cylinder of height $h$ and base-radius $r$, surmounted by a hemisphere of radius $r$ and center $O.$ The solid stands on a horizontal table. One end of a string is attached to a point on the base. The string is stretched (initially being kept in the vertical plane) over the highest point of the solid and held down at the point $P$ on the hemisphere such that $OP$ makes an angle $\alpha$ with the horizontal. Show that if $\alpha$ is small enough, the string will slacken if slightly displaced and no longer remain in a vertical plane. If then pulled tight through $P$, show that it will cross the common circular section of the hemisphere and cylinder at a point $Q$ such that $\angle SOQ = \phi$, $S$ being where it initially crossed this section, and $\sin \phi = \frac{r \tan \alpha}{h}$.
