Let f:RRf: \mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R} be a continuous function, and a<ba<b be two points in the image of ff (that is, there exists x,yx,y such that f(x)=af(x)=a and f(y)=bf(y)=b). Show that there is an interval II such that f(I)=[a,b]f(I)=[a,b].

Let f:[0,1](0,+)f: [0,1]\rightarrow(0,+\infty) be a continuous function. a) Show that for any integer n1n\geq 1, there is a unique division 0=a0<a1<<an=10=a_{0}<a_{1}<\ldots<a_{n}=1 such that akak+1f(x)dx=1n01f(x)dx\int_{a_{k}}^{a_{k+1}}f(x)\, dx=\frac{1}{n}\int_{0}^{1}f(x)\, dx holds for all k=0,1,,n1k=0,1,\ldots,n-1. b) For each nn, consider the aia_{i} above (that depend on nn) and define bn=a1+a2++annb_{n}=\frac{a_{1}+a_{2}+\ldots+a_{n}}{n}. Show that the sequence (bn)(b_{n}) is convergent and compute it's limit.

Consider the triangle ABC ABC with m(\angle BAC \equal{} 90^\circ) and AC \equal{} 2AB. Let P P and Q Q be the midpoints of AB AB and AC AC,respectively. Let M M and N N be two points found on the side BC BC such that CM \equal{} BN \equal{} x. It is also known that 2S[MNPQ] \equal{} S[ABC]. Determine x x in function of AB AB.
