USAMO 2024 Problem 3

  • Day 1

Let mm be a positive integer. A triangulation of a polygon is mm -balanced if its triangles can be colored with mm colors in such a way that the sum of the areas of all triangles of the same color is the same for each of the mm colors. Find all positive integers nn for which there exists an mm -balanced triangulation of a regular nn -gon.

Note: A triangulation of a convex polygon P\mathcal{P} with n≥3n \ge 3 sides is any partitioning of P\mathcal{P} into n−2n-2 triangles by n−3n-3 diagonals of P\mathcal{P} that do not intersect in the polygon's interior.
