In an acute-angled isosceles triangle $ABC$, altitudes $CC_1$ and $BB_1$ intersect the line passing through the vertex $A$ and parallel to the line $BC$, at points $P$ and $Q$. Let $A_0$ be the midpoint of side $BC$, and $AA_1$ the altitude. Lines $A_0C_1$ and $A_0B_1$ intersect line $PQ$ at points $K$ and $L$. Prove that the circles circumscribed around triangles $PQA_1, KLA_0, A_1B_1C_1$ and a circle with a diameter $AA_1$ intersect at one point.

In the plane, three distinct non-collinear points $A,B,C$ are marked. In each step, Ege can do one of the following:
[list]
[*] For marked points $X,Y$, mark the reflection of $X$ across $Y$.
[*]For distinct marked points $X,Y,Z,T$ which do not form a parallelogram, mark the center of spiral similarity which takes segment $XY$ to $ZT$.
[*] For distinct marked points $X,Y,Z,T$, mark the intersection of lines $XY$ and $ZT$.
[/list]
No matter how the points $A,B,C$ are marked in the beginning, can Ege always mark, after finitely many moves,
a) The circumcenter of $\triangle ABC$.
b) The incenter of $\triangle ABC$.

Given a positive integer $n$, let $a_1,a_2,..,a_n$ be a sequence of nonnegative integers. A sequence of one or more consecutive terms of $a_1,a_2,..,a_n$ is called $dragon$ if their aritmetic mean is larger than 1. If a sequence is a $dragon$, then its first term is the $head$ and the last term is the $tail$. Suppose $a_1,a_2,..,a_n$ is the $head$ or/and $tail$ of some $dragon$ sequence; determine the minimum value of $a_1+a_2+\cdots +a_n$ in terms of $n$.

Given $2009 \times 4018$ rectangular board. Frame is a rectangle $n \times n$ or $n \times(n + 2)$ for $ ( n \geq 3 )$ without all cells which don’t have any common points with boundary of rectangle. Rectangles $1\times1,1\times 2,1\times 3$ and $ 2\times 4$ are also frames. Two players by turn paint all cells of some frame that has no painted cells yet. Player that can't make such move loses. Who has a winning strategy?

Alireza is currently standing at the point $(0, 0)$ in the $x-y$ plane. At any given time, Alireza can move from the point $(x, y)$ to the point $(x + 1, y)$ or the point $(x, y + 1)$. However, he cannot move to any point of the form $(x, y)$ where $y \equiv 2x\,\, (\mod \,\,5)$. Let $p_k$ be the number of paths Alireza can take starting from the point $(0, 0)$ to the point $(k + 1, 2k + 1)$. Evaluate the sum $$\sum^{\infty}_{k=1} \frac{p_k}{5^k}.$$.

(2) $ \mathbb{R} \setminus W$ is countable.

Given an infinite sheet of square ruled paper. Some of the squares contain a piece. A move consists of a piece jumping over a piece on a neighbouring square (which shares a side) onto an empty square and removing the piece jumped over. Initially, there are no pieces except in an $m x n$ rectangle ($m, n > 1$) which has a piece on each square. What is the smallest number of pieces that can be left after a series of moves?

Opposite sides of a convex hexagon are parallel. Let's call the "height" of such a hexagon a segment with ends on straight lines containing opposite sides and perpendicular to them. Prove that a circle can be circumscribed around this hexagon if and only if its "heights" can be parallelly moved so that they form a triangle.

Sir Alex plays the following game on a row of 9 cells. Initially, all cells are empty. In each move, Sir Alex is allowed to perform exactly one of the following two operations:
[list=1]
[*] Choose any number of the form $2^j$, where $j$ is a non-negative integer, and put it into an empty cell.
[*] Choose two (not necessarily adjacent) cells with the same number in them; denote that number by $2^j$. Replace the number in one of the cells with $2^{j+1}$ and erase the number in the other cell.
[/list]
At the end of the game, one cell contains $2^n$, where $n$ is a given positive integer, while the other cells are empty. Determine the maximum number of moves that Sir Alex could have made, in terms of $n$.

Alice asserts that after her recent visit to Addis-Ababa she now has spent the New Year inside every possible hemisphere of Earth except one. What is the minimal number of places where Alice has spent the New Year?
Note: we consider places of spending the New Year to be points on the sphere. A point on the border of a hemisphere does not lie inside the hemisphere.
