Problem: In acute triangle $ABC$ with $\angle BAC > \angle BCA$, let $P$ be the point on side $BC$ such that $\angle PAB = \angle BCA$.

給定一個整數的有限集 $S$,是否總是存在一個整係數多項式 $f(x)$,使得對於所有整數 $x$,$f(x)$ 為完全平方數若且唯若 $x \in S$? Fix a finite set $S$ of integers. Is there a polynomial $f(x)$ of integral coefficients such that for all integers $x$, $f(x)$ is a perfect square if and only if $x \in S$?
