Geometry
Geometry is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties and relations of points, lines, surfaces, solids, and higher dimensional analogues. Expected questions involve calculating lengths, angles, areas, and volumes of various shapes, understanding geometric theorems, and solving problems related to spatial reasoning.

Star of David in a Circle
Eight points are given on a circle. In how many different ways can a Star of David be drawn with vertices at these points?
Note: A Star of David is a figure obtained when two triangles intersect and their sides create exactly 6 intersection points.

Inscribed Circle in a Triangle
Inside a triangle there is a point P, whose distances from the lines containing the sides of the triangle are `d_a,d_b,d_c`. Let R denote the radius of the circumscribed circle of the triangle and r the radius of the inscribed circle in the triangle. Show that `sqrt(d_a)+sqrt(d_b)+sqrt(d_3)<= sqrt (2R+5r) `.

Enlarging a Rectangle
A rectangle is given in the plane. Is it possible that after each side of the rectangle is increased by 1 cm, the area increases by 1 square meter? Provide an example or prove that it is impossible.
(If the rectangle is 1x5, it becomes 2x6 and no side can be 0)
