Let $ABC$ be a non-isosceles,aqute triangle with $AB<AC$ inscribed in circle $c(O,R)$.The circle $c_{1}(B,AB)$ crosses $AC$ at $K$ and $c$ at $E$.

Some of the towns in a country are connected with bidirectional paths, where each town can be reached by any other by going through these paths. From each town there are at least $n \geq 3$ paths. In the country there is no such route that includes all towns exactly once. Find the least possible number of towns in this country (Answer depends from $n$).
Given a fixed acute angle $\theta$ and a pair of internally tangent circles, let the line $l$ which passes through the point of tangency, $A$, cut the larger circle again at $B$ ($l$ does not pass through the centers of the circles). Let $M$ be a point on the major arc $AB$ of the larger circle, $N$ the point where $AM$ intersects the smaller circle, and $P$ the point on ray $MB$ such that $\angle MPN = \theta$. Find the locus of $P$ as $M$ moves on major arc $AB$ of the larger circle.

Let $n_1, n_2$ be positive integers. Consider in a plane $E$ two disjoint sets of points $M_1$ and $M_2$ consisting of $2n_1$ and $2n_2$ points, respectively, and such that no three points of the union $M_1 \cup M_2$ are collinear. Prove that there exists a straightline $g$ with the following property: Each of the two half-planes determined by $g$ on $E$ ($g$ not being included in either) contains exactly half of the points of $M_1$ and exactly half of the points of $M_2.$
A dissection of a convex polygon into finitely many triangles by segments is called a [i]trilateration[/i] if no three vertices of the created triangles lie on a single line (vertices of some triangles might lie inside the polygon). We say that a trilateration is [i]good[/i] if its segments can be replaced with one-way arrows in such a way that the arrows along every triangle of the trilateration form a cycle and the arrows along the whole convex polygon also form a cycle. Find all $n\ge 3$ such that the regular $n$-gon has a good trilateration.
Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcentre $O$ and centroid $G$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$ and $N$ the reflection of $M$ across $O$. Prove that $NO = NA$ if and only if $\angle AOG = 90^{\circ}$.

Cat and Claire are having a conversation about Cat’s favorite number. Cat says, “My favorite number is a two-digit multiple of $7$.”
Claire asks, “If you just told me the tens digit of the number, would I know your number?”
Cat says, “No. However, without knowing that, if I told you the tens digit of $100$ minus my number, you could determine my favorite number.”
Claire says, “Now I know your favorite number!"
What is Cat’s favorite number?
Initially given $31$ tuplets
$$(1,0,0,\dots,0),(0,1,0,\dots,0),\dots, (0,0,0,\dots,1)$$
were written on the blackboard. At every move we choose two written $31$ tuplets as $(a_1,a_2,a_3,\dots, a_{31})$ and $(b_1,b_2,b_3,\dots,b_{31})$, then write the $31$ tuplet $(a_1+b_1,a_2+b_2,a_3+b_3,\dots, a_{31}+b_{31})$ to the blackboard too. Find the least possible value of the moves such that one can write the $31$ tuplets
$$(0,1,1,\dots,1),(1,0,1,\dots,1),\dots, (1,1,1,\dots,0)$$
to the blackboard by using those moves.
