Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle and $D$, $E$ points on the sides $[AB]$ and $[AC]$ respectively. If $DF$, $EF$ (with $F\in AE$, $G\in AD$) are the interior angle bisectors of the angles of the triangle $ADE$, prove that the sum of the areas of the triangles $DEF$ and $DEG$ is at most equal with the area of the triangle $ABC$. When does the equality hold?

Let $AXYBZ$ be a convex pentagon inscribed in a circle with diameter $\overline{AB}$. The tangent to the circle at $Y$ intersects lines $BX$ and $BZ$ at $L$ and $K$, respectively. Suppose that $\overline{AY}$ bisects $\angle LAZ$ and $AY=YZ$.

Let $-2 < x_1 < 2$ be a real number and define $x_2, x_3, \ldots$ by $x_{n+1} = x_n^2-2$ for $n \geq 1$. Assume that no $x_n$ is $0$ and define a number $A$, $0 \leq A \leq 1$ in the following way: The $n^{\text{th}}$ digit after the decimal point in the binary representation of $A$ is a $0$ if $x_1x_2\cdots x_n$ is positive and $1$ otherwise. Prove that $A = \frac{1}{\pi}\cos^{-1}\left(\frac{x_1}{2}\right)$.

Let $\alpha, \beta$ and $\gamma$ denote the angles of the triangle $ABC$. The perpendicular bisector of $AB$ intersects $BC$ at the point $X$, the perpendicular bisector of $AC$ intersects it at $Y$. Prove that $\tan(\beta) \cdot \tan(\gamma) = 3$ implies $BC= XY$ (or in other words: Prove that a sufficient condition for $BC = XY$ is $\tan(\beta) \cdot \tan(\gamma) = 3$). Show that this condition is not necessary, and give a necessary and sufficient condition for $BC = XY$.

Prove that, if $\tan (a/2)$ is rational (or else, if $ a$ is an odd multiple of $\pi$ so that $\tan (a/2)$ is not defined), then $\cos a$ and $\sin a$ are rational.
And, conversely, if $\cos a$ and $\sin a$ are rational, then $\tan (a/2)$ is rational unless $a$ is an odd multiple of $\pi$ so that $\tan (a/2)$ is not defined.
