Question 142

Four frogs are positioned at four points on a straight line such that the distance between any two neighboring points is one unit of length. Suppose that every frog can jump to its corresponding point of reflection, by taking any one of the other three frogs as the reference point. Prove that there is no case where the distances between any two neighboring points, where the frogs stay, are all equal to $2008$ units of length. (Posed by Liu Shixiong)
