1 + x is never zero, so 1 + f(x) is never zero. It is 1 for x = 0, so it is always positive.

Hence f(x) is always positive. f ' 0 0, so f ' x 0 for all x > 0 and hence f is strictly
increasing.

3n is a multiple of 3, so its digit sum is a multiple of 3. Hence n must have digit sum
a multiple of 3. Hence n must be a multiple of 3. Hence 3n is a multiple of 9, so its
digit sum is a multiple of 9. So n has digit sum a multiple of 9 and hence n is a
multiple of 9.

. If two vertices of the triangle are on the same side of the square, then the thrid
vertex would be a height < 1 above the side and hence in the interior of the square.
Contradiction. So there must be one vertex of the triangle on each of three sides of
the square.
