The centres of all unit squares are marked in a \(10 \times 10\) chequered box (100 points in total). What is the smallest number of lines, that are not parallel to the sides of the square, that are needed to be drawn to erase all of the marked points?
The city plan is a rectangle of \(5 \times 10\) cells. On the streets, a one-way traffic system is introduced: it is allowed to go only to the right and upwards. How many different routes lead from the bottom left corner to the upper right?
On a \(100 \times 100\) board 100 rooks are placed that cannot capturing one another.
Prove that an equal number of rooks is placed in the upper right and lower left cells of \(50 \times 50\) squares.
A board of size \(2005\times2005\) is divided into square cells with a side length of 1 unit. Some board cells are numbered in some order by numbers 1, 2, ... so that from any non-numbered cell there is a numbered cell within a distance of less than 10. Prove that there can be found two cells with a distance between them of less than 150, which are numbered by numbers that differ by more than 23. (The distance between the cells is the distance between their centres.)
On the grid paper, Theresa drew a rectangle \(199 \times 991\) with all sides on the grid lines and vertices on intersection of grid lines. How many cells of the grid paper are crossed by a diagonal of this rectangle?
