Known ellipse$\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ (a>b>0), C and D are two points on the same side of the x axis of the ellipse. The two tangents of the ellipse made through C and D respectively intersect at point P, and intersect with the x axis at points B and A, and the line AC and BD intersect at point E. Make $EF \bot AB$ at point F, and the reverse extension line of line EF intersects CD at point M, and intersects the ellipse at point N. Prove that P, E, F three points are collinear:

The Square Preservation Theorem of Perfect Trinomials

An Observation on Perfect Square Trinomials — “Square Result Theorem”

Hi everyone,

I recently noticed something interesting while working with perfect square trinomials, and I wanted to share it to see if it’s a known result or just a neat observation.

My Theorem Statement (Informal):

If a real number is substituted into a perfect square trinomial, the result will always be a non-negative perfect square.

Example:

Let’s take the trinomial:

x^2 + 4x + 4 = (x + 2)^2

Try substituting different values for :1,2,3

And so on. This happens with any perfect square trinomial like:

In every case, the result of substituting a value for the variable gives a non-negative square, often of an integer or rational number.

My Question:

Is this theorem already known or named? If yes, what is it typically called? If not, is this worth developing into a more formal concept?

I’d love feedback from anyone more experienced in algebra or number theory!

Thanks in advance.

Call an ordered triple of positive integers $multiplicative$ if two terms of the triple multiply to the third. Find the number of permutations $f$ of the first $14$ positive integers to itself such that if


$(a,b,c)$ is a multiplicative triple, then $(f(a),f(b),f(c))$ is a multiplicative triple as well.
