The object of this exercise (if I understand it correctly) is to prove the
checkmate in each case.

Actually, it looks to me like the 3rd position is a draw...  Here is the eval:
22    47.54     ++   1. Kg5!!
22->   1:05  -0.34   1. Kg5 d5 2. Kf5 Kd6 3. d3 d4 4. Kg6
                     Kc5 5. Kf5 Kd5 6. Kg5 Ke6 7. Kg6 Kd6
                     8. Kf5 Kd5 <HT>
23     1:13   0.00   1. Kg5 d5 2. Kf5 Kd6 3. d3 d4 4. Kg6
                     Kc5 5. Kf5 Kd5 6. Kg5 Ke6 7. Kg6 Kd6
                     8. Kf5 Kd5
23->   1:19   0.00   1. Kg5 d5 2. Kf5 Kd6 3. d3 d4 4. Kg6
                     Kc5 5. Kf5 Kd5 6. Kg5 Ke6 7. Kg6 Kd6
                     8. Kf5 Kd5

{BIG SNIP}

32    61:38   0.00   1. Kg5 d5 2. Kf5 Kd6 3. d3 d4 4. Kg6
                     Kc5 5. Kf5 Kd5 6. Kg5 Ke6 7. Kg6 Kd6
                     8. Kf5 Kd5
32->  69:56   0.00   1. Kg5 d5 2. Kf5 Kd6 3. d3 d4 4. Kg6
                     Kc5 5. Kf5 Kd5 6. Kg5 Ke6 7. Kg6 Kd6
                     8. Kf5 Kd5


Does Kg5 actually lead to mate, and if so, what is the pv?
