Let function $f(x)$ is defined as the following: $$ f(x)= \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} x+2 &, \text{if } x \le -1\\ 2x &, \text{if } -1 < x < 2\\ \displaystyle\frac{x^2}{2} &, \text{if } x \ge 2 \end{array} \right. $$ (A) Compute $f(f(f(-\frac{7}{4})))$ (B) If $f(a)=3$, find the value of $a$

(Euler Theorem) Let $ABC$ be a triangle, $O$, $I$ be respectively the circumcetner and incenter. Then $$OI^2 = R^2 - 2Rr$$, where $R$ denotes the circumradius and $r$ denotes the inradius.
(Nine-point circle) For any triangle $AB$C, the feet of three altitudes, the midpoints of three sides, and the midpoints of the segments from the vertices to the orthocenter, all lie on the same circle. This circle is of radius half as the circumradius of triangle $ABC$.
Show that the nine-point center $N$ lies on the Euler line, and is the middle point of $O$, the circumcenter, and $H$, the orthocenter.

Colour all the points on a plane either white or black randomly. Show that it is always possible to find a triangle whose vertices have the same colour and its side length is either $1$ or $\sqrt{3}$.
Randomly colour all the points one a plane either black or white. Show that if any two points with a distance of $2$ units have the same colour, then all the points on this plane have the same colour.
