Two circles $k_1$ and $k_2$ with centers $O_1$ and $O_2$ respectively touch externally at $A$. Let $M$ be a point inside $k_2$ and outside the line $O_1O_2$. Find a line $d$ through $M$ which intersects $k_1$ and $k_2$ again at $B$ and $C$ respectively so that the circumcircle of $\Delta ABC$ is tangent to $O_1O_2$.

Gabriel plays to draw triangles using the vertices of a regular polygon with $2019$ sides, following these rules: (i) The vertices used by each triangle must not have been previously used. (ii) The sides of the triangle to be drawn must not intersect with the sides of the triangles previously drawn. If Gabriel continues to draw triangles until it is no longer possible, determine the minimum number of triangles that he drew.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle, and let $D$, $A$, $B$, $E$ be points on line $AB$, in that order, such that $AC=AD$ and $BE=BC$. Let $\omega_1, \omega_2$ be the circumcircles of $\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle CDE$, respectively, which meet at a point $F \neq C$. If the tangent to $\omega_2$ at $F$ cuts $\omega_1$ again at $G$, and the foot of the altitude from $G$ to $FC$ is $H$, prove that $\angle AGH=\angle BGH$. [i]Proposed by David Stoner[/i]

Mildred the cow is tied with a rope to the side of a square shed with side length 10 meters. The rope is attached to the shed at a point two meters from one corner of the shed. The rope is 14 meters long. The area of grass growing around the shed that Mildred can reach is given by $n\pi$ square meters, where $n$ is a positive integer. Find $n$.

There are two types of items in Alik's collection: badges and bracelets and there are more badges than bracelets. Alik noticed that if he increases the number of bracelets some (not necessarily integer) number of times without changing the number of icons, then in its collection will be $100$ items. And if, on the contrary, he increases the initial number of badges by the same number of times, leaving the same number of bracelets, then he will have $101$ items. How many badges and how many bracelets could there be in Alik's collection?

Prove that for any convex quadrilateral it is always possible to cut out three smaller quadrilaterals similar to the original one with the scale factor equal to 1/2. (The angles of a smaller quadrilateral are equal to the corresponding original angles and the sides are twice smaller then the corresponding sides of the original quadrilateral.)

Gus is an inhabitant on an $11$ by $11$ grid of squares. He can walk from one square to an adjacent square (vertically or horizontally) in $1$ unit of time. There are also two vents on the grid, one at the top left and one at the bottom right. If Gus is at one vent, he can teleport to the other vent in $0.5$ units of time. Let an ordered pair of squares $(a,b)$ on the grid be [i]sus [/i] if the fastest path from $a$ to $b$ requires Gus to teleport between vents. Walking on top of a vent does not count as teleporting between vents. What is the total number of ordered pairs of squares that are [i]sus[/i]? Note that the pairs $(a_1,b_1)$ and $(a_2,b_2)$ are considered distinct if and only if $a_1 \ne a_2$ or $b_1 \ne b_2$.

Solve the equation $\frac{1}{\sin x}+\frac{1}{\cos x}=\frac{1}{p}, $ where $p$ is a real parameter. Investigate for which values of $p$ solutions exist and how many solutions exist. (Of course, the last question ''how many solutions exist'' should be understood as ''how many solutions exists modulo $2\pi $''.)

2016 Estonia Team Selection Test, 1

There are $k$ heaps on the table, each containing a different positive number of stones. Juri and Mari make moves alternatingly, Juri starts. On each move, the player making the move has to pick a heap and remove one or more stones in it from the table; in addition, the player is allowed to distribute any number of remaining stones from that heap in any way between other non-empty heaps. The player to remove the last stone from the table wins. For which positive integers $k$ does Juri have a winning strategy for any initial state that satisfies the conditions?
