Other problems

Problem 1

Prove that if there exists a point PP inside the convex quadrilateral ABCDABCD such that the triangles PABPAB , PBCPBC , PCDPCD , PDAPDA have the same area, then one of the diagonals of ABCDABCD bisects the area of the quadrilateral.

Problem 2

Set T⊂{1,2,…,n}3T\subset\{1,2,\dots,n\}^3 has the property that for any two triplets (a,b,c)(a,b,c) and (x,y,z)(x,y,z) in TT , we have a<b<ca<b<c , and also, we know that at most one of the equalities a=xa=x , b=yb=y , c=zc=z holds. Maximize ∣T∣|T| .

Problem 3

Consider the convex lattice quadrilateral PQRSPQRS whose diagonals intersect at EE . Prove that if ∠P+∠Q<180∘\angle P+\angle Q<180^\circ , then the △PQE\triangle PQE contains inside it or on one of its sides a lattice point other than PP and QQ .
