In a rectangle with vertices $(0, 0), (0, 2), (n,0),(n, 2)$, ($n$ is a positive integer) find the number of longest paths starting from $(0, 0)$ and arriving at $(n, 2)$ which satis fy the following: $\bullet$ At each movement, you can move right, up, left, down by $1$. $\bullet$ You cannot visit a point you visited before. $\bullet$ You cannot move outside the rectangle.
A point $ D$ is taken on the side $ AB$ of a triangle $ ABC$. Two circles passing through $ D$ and touching $ AC$ and $ BC$ at $ A$ and $ B$ respectively intersect again at point $ E$.

Prove that from an $n\times n$ grid, one can find $\Omega (n^{\frac{5}{3}})$ points such that no four of them are vertices of a square with sides parallel to lines of the grid. Imagine yourself as Erdos (!) and guess what is the best exponent instead of $\frac{5}{3}$!
Circle $\omega$ has radius $5$ and is centered at $O$. Point $A$ lies outside $\omega$ such that $OA=13$.

An equilateral triangle with side length $3$ is divided into $9$ congruent triangular cells as shown in the figure below. Initially all the cells contain $0$.

Determine all positive integers $n$ such that after performing several such moves one can obtain $9$ consecutive numbers $n,(n+1),\cdots ,(n+8)$ in some order.
