colouring the table

The first row of a table of size 2005×5 2005\times5 is filled with 1,2,3,4,5 so that every two neighbouring cells contain distinct numbers. Prove that it is possible to fill four other rows with 1,2,3,4,5 so that any neighbouring cells in them will contain distinct numbers as well as any cells of the same column will contain pairwise distinct numbers.

colouring the map

The plane is dissected by broken lines into some regions. It is possible to paint the map formed by these regions in three colours so that any neighbouring regions will have different colours. Call by knots the points which belong to at least two segments of broken lines. One of the segments connecting two knots is erased and replaced by arbitrary broken line connecting the same knots. Prove that it is possible to paint new map in three colours so that any neighbouring regions will have different colours.

easy game with triangle

Two players by turn paint the vertices of triangles on the given picture each with his colour. At the end, each of small triangles is painted by the colour of the majority of its vertices. The winner is one who gets at least 6 triangles of his colour. If both players get at most 5, then it is a draw. Does any of them have winning strategy? If yes, then who wins? \begin{picture}(40,50) \put(2,2){\put(0,0){\line(6,0){42}} \put(7,14){\line(6,0){28}} \put(14,28){\line(6,0){14}} \put(0,0){\line(1,2){21}} \put(14,0){\line(1,2){14}} \put(28,0){\line(1,2){7}} \put(14,28){\line(1,2){7}} \put(14,0){\line( \minus{} 1,2){7}} \put(28,0){\line( \minus{} 1,2){14}} \put(42,0){\line( \minus{} 1,2){21}} \put(0,0){\circle*{3}} \put(14,0){\circle*{3}} \put(28,0){\circle*{3}} \put(42,0){\circle*{3}} \put(7,14){\circle*{3}} \put(21,14){\circle*{3}} \put(35,14){\circle*{3}} \put(14,28){\circle*{3}} \put(28,28){\circle*{3}} \put(21,42){\circle*{3}}} \end{picture}

game with triangle

Two players by turn paint the circles on the given picture each with his colour. At the end, the rest of the area of each of small triangles is painted by the colour of the majority of vertices of this triangle. The winner is one who gets larger area of his colour (the area of circles is taken into account). Does any of them have winning strategy? If yes, then who wins? \begin{picture}(60,60) \put(5,3){\put(3,0){\line(6,0){8}} \put(17,0){\line(6,0){8}} \put(31,0){\line(6,0){8}} \put(45,0){\line(6,0){8}} \put(10,14){\line(6,0){8}} \put(24,14){\line(6,0){8}} \put(38,14){\line(6,0){8}} \put(17,28){\line(6,0){8}} \put(31,28){\line(6,0){8}} \put(24,42){\line(6,0){8}} \put(1,2){\line(1,2){5}} \put(15,2){\line(1,2){5}} \put(29,2){\line(1,2){5}} \put(43,2){\line(1,2){5}} \put(8,16){\line(1,2){5}} \put(22,16){\line(1,2){5}} \put(36,16){\line(1,2){5}} \put(15,30){\line(1,2){5}} \put(29,30){\line(1,2){5}} \put(22,44){\line(1,2){5}} \put(13,2){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(27,2){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(41,2){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(55,2){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(20,16){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(34,16){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(48,16){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(27,30){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(41,30){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(34,44){\line( \minus{} 1,2){5}} \put(0,0){\circle{6}} \put(14,0){\circle{6}} \put(28,0){\circle{6}} \put(42,0){\circle{6}} \put(56,0){\circle{6}} \put(7,14){\circle{6}} \put(21,14){\circle{6}} \put(35,14){\circle{6}} \put(49,14){\circle{6}} \put(14,28){\circle{6}} \put(28,28){\circle{6}} \put(42,28){\circle{6}} \put(21,42){\circle{6}} \put(35,42){\circle{6}} \put(28,56){\circle{6}}} \end{picture}
