RU-ALLRUSSIAN 1990 Problem 16

    Given a point X and n vectors xi\mathbf{x}_{\mathrm{i}} with sum zero in the plane. For each permutation of the vectors we form a set of n points, by starting at X and adding the vectors in order. For example, with the original ordering we get X1\mathbf{X}_{1} such that XX1=x1\mathbf{X}\mathbf{X}_{1} = \mathbf{x}_{1} , X2\mathbf{X}_{2} such that X1X2=x2\mathbf{X}_{1}\mathbf{X}_{2} = \mathbf{x}_{2} and so on. Show that for some permutation we can find two points Y, Z with angle YXZ=60\mathbf{Y}\mathbf{X}\mathbf{Z} = 60 deg, so that all the points lie inside or on the triangle XYZ.
