An insect lives on the surface of a regular tetrahedron with edges of length 1. It wishes to travel on the surface of the tetrahedron from the midpoint of one edge to the midpoint of the opposite edge. What is the length of the shortest such trip? (Note: Two edges of a tetrahedron are opposite if they have no common endpoint.) $ \displaystyle \textbf{(A)} \ \frac {1}{2} \sqrt {3} \qquad \textbf{(B)} \ 1 \qquad \textbf{(C)} \ \sqrt {2} \qquad \textbf{(D)} \ \frac {3}{2} \qquad \textbf{(E)} \ 2$

A solid cube has side length $ 3$ inches. A $ 2$-inch by $ 2$-inch square hole is cut into the center of each face. The edges of each cut are parallel to the edges of the cube, and each hole goes all the way through the cube. What is the volume, in cubic inches, of the remaining solid? $ \textbf{(A)}\ 7\qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 8\qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 10\qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 12\qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 15$

Note that $8^3 - 7^3 = 169 = 13^2$ and $13 = 2^2 + 3^2.$ Prove that if the difference between two consecutive cubes is a square, then it is the square of the sum of two consecutive squares.

With $150$ white cubes of $1 \times 1 \times 1$ a prism of $6 \times 5 \times 5$ is assembled, its six faces are painted blue and then the prism is disassembled. Lucrecia must build a new prism, without holes, exclusively using cubes that have at least one blue face and so that the faces of Lucrecia's prism are all completely blue. Give the dimensions of the prism with the largest volume that Lucrecia can assemble.

P6. It is given the integer $Y$ with $Y = 2018 + 20118 + 201018 + 2010018 + \cdots + 201 \underbrace{00 \ldots 0}_{\textrm{100 digits}} 18.$ Determine the sum of all the digits of such $Y$. (It is implied that $Y$ is written with a decimal representation.) P7. Three groups of lines divides a plane into $D$ regions. Every pair of lines in the same group are parallel. Let $x, y$ and $z$ respectively be the number of lines in groups 1, 2, and 3. If no lines in group 3 go through the intersection of any two lines (in groups 1 and 2, of course), then the least number of lines required in order to have more than 2018 regions is .... P8. It is known a frustum $ABCD.EFGH$ where $ABCD$ and $EFGH$ are squares with both planes being parallel. The length of the sides of $ABCD$ and $EFGH$ respectively are $6a$ and $3a$, and the height of the frustum is $3t$. Points $M$ and $N$ respectively are intersections of the diagonals of $ABCD$ and $EFGH$ and the line $MN$ is perpendicular to the plane $EFGH$. Construct the pyramids $M.EFGH$ and $N.ABCD$ and calculate the volume of the 3D figure which is the intersection of pyramids $N.ABCD$ and $M.EFGH$. P9. Look at the arrangement of natural numbers in the following table. The position of the numbers is determined by their row and column numbers, and its diagonal (which, the sequence of numbers is read from the bottom left to the top right). As an example, the number $19$ is on the 3rd row, 4th column, and on the 6th diagonal. Meanwhile the position of the number $26$ is on the 3rd row, 5th column, and 7th diagonal. (Image should be placed here, look at attachment.) a) Determine the position of the number $2018$ based on its row, column, and diagonal. b) Determine the average of the sequence of numbers whose position is on the "main diagonal" (quotation marks not there in the first place), which is the sequence of numbers read from the top left to the bottom right: 1, 5, 13, 25, ..., which the last term is the largest number that is less than or equal to $2018$. P10. It is known that $A$ is the set of 3-digit integers not containing the digit $0$. Define a [i]gadang[/i] number to be the element of $A$ whose digits are all distinct and the digits contained in such number are not prime, and (a [i]gadang[/i] number leaves a remainder of 5 when divided by 7. If we pick an element of $A$ at random, what is the probability that the number we picked is a [i]gadang[/i] number?

Nine congruent spheres are packed inside a unit cube in such a way that one of them has its center at the center of the cube and each of the others is tangent to the center sphere and to three faces of the cube.

An empty $2020 \times 2020 \times 2020$ cube is given, and a $2020 \times 2020$ grid of square unit cells is drawn on each of its six faces. A [i]beam[/i] is a $1 \times 1 \times 2020$ rectangular prism. Several beams are placed inside the cube subject to the following conditions: [list=] [*]The two $1 \times 1$ faces of each beam coincide with unit cells lying on opposite faces of the cube. (Hence, there are $3 \cdot {2020}^2$ possible positions for a beam.) [*]No two beams have intersecting interiors. [*]The interiors of each of the four $1 \times 2020$ faces of each beam touch either a face of the cube or the interior of the face of another beam. [/list] What is the smallest positive number of beams that can be placed to satisfy these conditions? [i]Proposed by Alex Zhai[/i]

There are four spheres each of radius $1$ whose centers form a triangular pyramid where each side has length $2$. There is a 5th sphere which touches all four other spheres and has radius less than $1$. What is its radius?

The orthogonal projection of a tetrahedron onto a plane containing one of its faces is a trapezoid of area $1$, which has only one pair of parallel sides. a) Is it possible that the orthogonal projection of this tetrahedron onto a plane containing another its face is a square of area $1$? b) The same question for a square of area $1/2019$.

Three circles of radius $a$ are drawn on the surface of a sphere of radius $r$. Each pair of circles touches externally and the three circles all lie in one hemisphere. Find the radius of a circle on the surface of the sphere which touches all three circles.

Let $O$ be a point of three-dimensional space and let $l_1, l_2, l_3$ be mutually perpendicular straight lines passing through $O$. Let $S$ denote the sphere with center $O$ and radius $R$, and for every point $M$ of $S$, let $S_M$ denote the sphere with center $M$ and radius $R$. We denote by $P_1, P_2, P_3$ the intersection of $S_M$ with the straight lines $l_1, l_2, l_3$, respectively, where we put $P_i \neq O$ if $l_i$ meets $S_M$ at two distinct points and $P_i = O$ otherwise ($i = 1, 2, 3$). What is the set of centers of gravity of the (possibly degenerate) triangles $P_1P_2P_3$ as $M$ runs through the points of $S$?

A right rectangular prism $P$ (i.e., a rectangular parallelpiped) has sides of integral length $a, b, c,$ with $a\le b\le c.$ A plane parallel to one of the faces of $P$ cuts $P$ into two prisms, one of which is similar to $P,$ and both of which have nonzero volume. Given that $b=1995,$ for how many ordered triples $(a, b, c)$ does such a plane exist?
