p1. Consider the sequence of positive integers $2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11 ...$. which are not perfect squares. Calculate the $2019$-th term of the sequence.


p2. In a triangle $ABC$, let $D$ be the midpoint of side $BC$ and $E$ be the midpoint of segment $AD$. Lines $AC$ and $BE$ intersect at $F$. Show that $3AF = AC$.


p3. Find all positive integers $n$ such that $n! + 2019$ is a square perfect.


p4. In a party, there is a certain group of people, none of whom has more than $3$ friends in this. However, if two people are not friends at least they have a friend in this party. What is the largest possible number of people in the party?
