C1

A polygon having nn sides is arbitrarily decomposed in triangles having all the vertices among the vertices of the polygon. We paint in black the triangles that have two sides that are also sides of the polygon, in red if only one side of the triangle is side of the polygon and white those triangles that have in common with the poligon only vertices.

Prove that there are 2 more black triangles than white ones.

C2

Given m×nm \times n table, each cell signed with "-". The following operations are

(i) to change all the signs in entire row to the opposite, i. e. every "-" to "+", and every "+" to "-";

(ii) to change all the signs in entire column to the opposite, i. e. every "-" to "+" and every "+" to " -".

(a) Prove that if m=n=100m=n=100, using the above operations one can not obtain 2004 signs "t".

(b) If m=1004m=1004, find the least n>100n>100 for which 2004 signs " + " can be obtained.
