for the second question ive reduced it to "find d if (1000a+100b+10c+d)/25(a+b+c+d) is an integer"

idk whether this is the appropriate forum

Viviani's theorem, named after Vincenzo Viviani, states that the sum of the shortest distances from any interior point to the sides of an equilateral triangle equals the length of the triangle's altitude.

are you sure

uh ok

then your nest is

$$ n=f^{2023}(m) = f(z) = \sqrt{m+\sqrt{z}} $$

$$ f^{2022}(m) = z = (n^2-m)^2 $$
