The lengths of three sides of a right triangle are all integer numbers.

a) Show that one of them is divisible by \(3\).

b*) Show that one of them is divisible by \(5\).

A segment \(AB\) is a base of an isosceles triangle \(ABC\). A line perpendicular to the segment \(AC\) was drawn through point \(A\) – this line crosses an extension of the segment \(BC\) at point \(D\). There is also a point \(E\) somewhere, such that angles \(\angle ECB\) and \(\angle EBA\) are both right. Point \(F\) is on the extension of the segment \(AB\), such that \(B\) is between \(A\) and \(F\). We also know that \(BF = AD\). Show that \(ED =EF\).

Show that a number \(3333333333332\) is not a perfect square (without using a calculator).

What is a remainder in division by \(3\) of the number \(5^{21} + 17^6 \times 7^{2019}\)?

In a country far far away, there are only two types of coins: 1 crown and 3 crowns coins. Molly had a bag with only 3 crown coins in it. She used some of these coins to buy herself hat and she got one 1 crown coin back. The next day, all of her friends were jealous of her hat, so she decided to buy identical hats for them. She again only had 3 crown coins in her purse, and she used them to pay for 7 hats. Show that she got a single 1 crown coin back.

If natural numbers \(a,b\) and \(c\) are lengths of the sides of a right triangle (such that \(a^2+b^2=c^2\)), show that at least one of these numbers is divisible by \(3\).
