Question 1. For an olympiad geometry problem, Tina wants to draw an acute triangle whose
angles each measure a multiple of 10◦ . She doesn’t want her triangle to have any special properties,
so none of the angles can measure 30◦ or 60◦ , and the triangle should definitely not be isosceles.
Up to similarity, how many different triangles can Tina draw? (sol)

Question 2. Let a, b, c be positive reals for which

n se
(a + b)(a + c) = bc + 2
