For a natural number $n,$ let $a_n$ be the sum of all products $xy$ over all integers $x$ and $y$ with $1 \leq x < y \leq n.$ For example, $a_3 = 1\cdot2 + 2\cdot3 + 1\cdot3 = 11.$ Determine the smallest $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $n > 1$ and $a_n$ is a multiple of $2020.$

A paper triangle with the angles $20^o$, $20^o$ and $140^o$ is cut into two triangles by the bisector of one of its angles. Then one of these triangles is cut into two by its bisector, and so on. Prove that it is impossible to get a triangle similar to the initial one. (AI Galochkin)

A rectangle has sides of length $a$ and $36$. A hinge is installed at each vertex of the rectangle and at the midpoint of each side of length $36$. The sides of length $a$ can be pressed toward each other keeping those two sides parallel so the rectangle becomes a convex hexagon as shown. When the figure is a hexagon with the sides of length $a$ parallel and separated by a distance of $24,$ the hexagon has the same area as the original rectangle. Find $a^2$.
