From each vertex of triangle ABCABC we draw 3 arbitary parrallell lines, and from each vertex we draw a perpendicular to these lines. There are 3 rectangles that one of their diagnals is triangle's side. We draw their other diagnals and call them 1\ell_1, 2\ell_2 and 3\ell_3. a) Prove that 1\ell_1, 2\ell_2 and 3\ell_3 are concurrent at a point PP. b) Find the locus of PP as we move the 3 arbitary lines.

We call the set ARnA\in \mathbb R^n CN if and only if for every continuous f:AAf:A\to A there exists some xAx\in A such that f(x)=xf(x)=x. a) Example: We know that A={xRnx1}A = \{ x\in\mathbb R^n | |x|\leq 1 \} is CN. b) The circle is not CN.
Which one of these sets are CN?
1) A={xR3x=1}A=\{x\in\mathbb R^3| |x|=1\}
2) The cross {(x,y)R2xy=0, x+y1}\{(x,y)\in\mathbb R^2|xy=0,\ |x|+|y|\leq1\}
3) Graph of the function f:[0,1]Rf:[0,1]\to \mathbb R defined by f(x)=\sin\frac 1x\ \mbox{if}\ x\neq0,\ f(0)=0

An airplane wants to go from a point on the equator, and at each moment it will go to the northeast with speed vv. Suppose the radius of earth is RR. a) Will the airplane reach to the north pole? If yes how long it will take to reach the north pole? b) Will the airplne rotate finitely many times around the north pole? If yes how many times?
