a) Let MNPMNP be a triangle such that MNP>60o\angle MNP> 60^o. Show that the side MPMP cannot be the smallest side of the triangle MNPMNP. b) In a plane the equilateral triangle ABCABC is considered. The point VV that does not belong to the plane (ABC)(ABC) is chosen so that VAB=VBC=VCA\angle VAB = \angle VBC = \angle VCA. Show that if VA=ABVA = AB, the tetrahedron VABCVABC is regular.

Let ABCABC be a triangle. Let BB' be the symmetric of BB with respect to C,CC, C' the symmetry of CC with respect to AA and AA' the symmetry of AA with respect to BB.
a) Prove that the area of triangle ACAAC'A' is twice the area of triangle ABCABC. b) If we delete points A,B,CA, B, C, how can they be reconstituted? Justify your reasoning.

We say that a set A\displaystyle A of non-zero vectors from the plane has the property (S)\displaystyle \left( \mathcal S \right) iff it has at least three elements and for all uA\displaystyle \overrightarrow u \in A there are v,wA\displaystyle \overrightarrow v, \overrightarrow w \in A such that vw\displaystyle \overrightarrow v \neq \overrightarrow w and u=v+w\displaystyle \overrightarrow u = \overrightarrow v + \overrightarrow w. (a) Prove that for all n6\displaystyle n \geq 6 there is a set of n\displaystyle n non-zero vectors, which has the property (S)\displaystyle \left( \mathcal S \right). (b) Prove that every finite set of non-zero vectors, which has the property (S)\displaystyle \left( \mathcal S \right), has at least 6\displaystyle 6 elements. Mihai Baluna

Let α>1\alpha>1 and f:[1α,α][1α,α]f:\left[\frac{1}{\alpha},\alpha\right]\rightarrow \left[\frac{1}{\alpha},\alpha\right], a bijective function. If f1(x)=1f(x), x[1α,α]f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{f(x)},\ \forall x\in \left[\frac{1}{\alpha},\alpha\right], prove that:
a)ff has at least one point of discontinuity; b)if ff is continuous in 11, then ff has an infinity points of discontinuity; c)there is a function ff which satisfies the conditions from the hypothesis and has a finite number of points of dicontinuity.
