The sum of the squares of three positive numbers is $160$. One of the numbers is equal to the sum of the other two. The difference between the smaller two numbers is $4.$ What is the difference between the cubes of the smaller two numbers?

The writer Arthur has $n \ge1$ co-authors who write books with him. Each book has a list of authors including Arthur himself. No two books have the same set of authors. At a party with all his co-author, each co-author writes on a note how many books they remember having written with Arthur. Inspecting the numbers on the notes, they discover that the numbers written down are the first $n$ Fibonacci numbers (defined by $F_1 = F_2 = 1$ and $F_{k+2}= F_{k+1} + F_k$). For which $n$ is it possible that none of the co-authors had a lapse of memory?

Let $ H$ be the piont of midpoint of the cord $ PQ$ that is on the circle centered the origin $ O$ with radius $ 1.$
Suppose the length of the cord $ PQ$ is $ 2\sin \frac {t}{2}$ for the angle $ t\ (0\leq t\leq \pi)$ that is formed by half-ray $ OH$ and the positive direction of the $ x$ axis. Answer the following questions.
(1) Express the coordiante of $ H$ in terms of $ t$.
(2) When $ t$ moves in the range of $ 0\leq t\leq \pi$, find the minimum value of $ x$ coordinate of $ H$.
(3) When $ t$ moves in the range of $ 0\leq t\leq \frac {\pi}{2}$, find the area $ S$ of the region bounded by the curve drawn by the point $ H$ and the $ x$ axis and the $ y$ axis.
