A continuous function \(f(x)\) is such that for all real \(x\) the following inequality holds: \(f(x^2) - (f (x))^2 \geq 1/4\). Is it true that the function \(f(x)\) necessarily has an extreme point?
The numbers \(p\) and \(q\) are such that the parabolas \(y = - 2x^2\) and \(y = x^2 + px + q\) intersect at two points, bounding a certain figure.

The volume of the regular quadrangular pyramid \(SABCD\) is equal to \(V\). The height \(SP\) of the pyramid is the edge of the regular tetrahedron \(SPQR\), the plane of the face \(PQR\) which is perpendicular to the edge \(SC\). Find the volume of the common part of these pyramids.
The height \(SO\) of a regular quadrilateral pyramid \(SABCD\) forms an angle \(\alpha\) with a side edge and the volume of this pyramid is equal to \(V\). The vertex of the second regular quadrangular pyramid is at the point \(S\), the centre of the base is at the point \(C\), and one of the vertices of the base lies on the line \(SO\). Find the volume of the common part of these pyramids.
The quadratic trinomials \(f (x)\) and \(g (x)\) are such that \(f' (x) g' (x) \geq | f (x) | + | g (x) |\) for all real \(x\). Prove that the product \(f (x) g (x)\) is equal to the square of some trinomial.
The sequence \((a_n)\) is given by the conditions \(a_1 = 1000000\), \(a_{n + 1} = n \lfloor a_n/n\rfloor + n\). Prove that an infinite subsequence can be found within it, which is an arithmetic progression.
In the infinite sequence \((x_n)\), the first term \(x_1\) is a rational number greater than 1, and \(x_{n + 1} = x_n + \frac{1}{\lfloor x_n\rfloor }\) for all positive integers \(n\).
Prove that there is an integer in this sequence.
Note that in this problem, square brackets represent integers and curly brackets represent non-integer values or 0.
When water is drained from a pool, the water level \(h\) in it varies depending on the time \(t\) according to the function \(h (t) = at^2 + bt + c\), and at the time \(t_0\) of when the draining is ending, the equalities \(h (t_0) = h' (t_0) = 0\) are satisfied. For how many hours does the pool drain completely, if in the first hour the water level in it is reduced by half?
On the plane coordinate axes with the same but not stated scale and the graph of the function \(y = \sin x\), \(x\) \((0; \alpha)\) are given.
How can you construct a tangent to this graph at a given point using a compass and a ruler if: a) \(\alpha \in (\pi /2; \pi)\); b) \(\alpha \in (0; \pi /2)\)?
The sequence \(a_1, a_2, \dots\) is such that \(a_1 \in (1,2)\) and \(a_{k + 1} = a_k + \frac{k}{a_k}\) for any positive integer \(k\).
