  • Paper B

Each point in the plane with integer coordinates is coloured red or blue such that the following two properties hold.

  • For any two red points, the line segment joining them does not contain any blue points.
  • For any two blue points that are distance 2 apart, the midpoint of the line segment joining them is blue.

Prove that if three red points are the vertices of a triangle, then the interior of the triangle does not contain any blue points.
