Say that a positive integer is [i]sweet[/i] if it uses only the digits 0, 1, 2, 4, and 8. For instance, 2014 is sweet. There are sweet integers whose squares are sweet: some examples (not necessarily the smallest) are 1, 2, 11, 12, 20, 100, 202, and 210. There are sweet integers whose cubes are sweet: some examples (not necessarily the smallest) are 1, 2, 10, 20, 200, 202, 281, and 2424. Prove that there exists a sweet positive integer $n$ whose square and cube are both sweet, such that the sum of all the digits of $n$ is 2014.

What is the smallest positive integer $t$ such that there exist integers $x_{1},x_{2}, \cdots, x_{t}$ with \[{x_{1}}^{3}+{x_{2}}^{3}+\cdots+{x_{t}}^{3}=2002^{2002}\;\;?\]
Consider a regular pyramid and a perpendicular to its base at an arbitrary point $P$. Prove that the sum of the lengths of the segments connecting $P$ to the intersection points of the perpendicular with the planes of the pyramid’s faces does not depend on the location of $P$.
Consider positive numbers $h, s_1, s_2$, and a spatial triangle $\vartriangle ABC$. How many ways are there to select a point $D$ so that the height of tetrahedron $ABCD$ drawn from $D$ equals $h$, and the areas of faces $ACD$ and $BCD$ equal $s_1$ and $s_2$, respectively?
Let $C$ be a cube. Let $P$, $Q$, and $R$ be random vertices of $C$, chosen uniformly and independently from the set of vertices of $C$. (Note that $P$, $Q$, and $R$ might be equal.) Compute the probability that some face of $C$ contains $P$, $Q$, and $R$.
Three chords of a sphere, each having length $5,6,7$, intersect at a single point inside the sphere and are pairwise perpendicular. For $R$ the maximum possible radius of this sphere, find $R^2$.
Prove that the four segments connecting the vertices of the tetrahedron with the centers of gravity of the opposite faces have a common point.
Given the segments $AB$ and $CD$ not necessarily on the same plane. Point $X$ is the midpoint of the segment $AB$, and the point $Y$ is the midpoint of $CD$. Given that point $X$ is not on line $CD$, and that point $Y$ is not on line $AB$, prove that $2 | XY | \le | AD | + | BC |$. When is equality achieved?
A right cone in $xyz$-space has its apex at $(0,0,0)$, and the endpoints of a diameter on its base are $(12,13,-9)$ and $(12,-5,15)$. The volume of the cone can be expressed as $a\pi$. What is $a$?
Let $E$ be the set of $1983^3$ points of the space $\mathbb R^3$ all three of whose coordinates are integers between $0$ and $1982$ (including $0$ and $1982$). A coloring of $E$ is a map from $E$ to the set {red, blue}. How many colorings of $E$ are there satisfying the following property: The number of red vertices among the $8$ vertices of any right-angled parallelepiped is a multiple of $4$ ?
A polyhedron is circumscribed around a sphere. Let's call its face [i]large [/i] if the projection of the sphere onto the plane of the face falls entirely within the face. Prove that there are no more than 6 large faces.
We consider a prism with 6 faces, 5 of which are circumscriptible quadrilaterals. Prove that all the faces of the prism are circumscriptible quadrilaterals.
In tetrahedron $ABCD$, edge $AB$ has length 3 cm. The area of face $ABC$ is 15 $\text{cm}^2$ and the area of face $ABD$ is 12 $\text{cm}^2$. These two faces meet each other at a $30^\circ$ angle. Find the volume of the tetrahedron in $\text{cm}^3$.
A sphere is inscribed in a regular tetrahedron. Another regular tetrahedron is inscribed in the sphere. Find the ratio of the volumes of these two tetrahedra.
Prove that we can fill in the three dimensional space with regular tetrahedrons and regular octahedrons, all of which have the same edge-lengths. Also find the ratio of the number of the regular tetrahedrons used and the number of the regular octahedrons used.

While Theophrastus was talking to Aristotle about the classification of plants, had a dog tied to a perfectly smooth cylindrical column of radius $r$, with a very fine rope that wrapped around the column and with a loop. The dog had the extreme free from the rope around his neck. In trying to reach Theophrastus, he put the rope tight and it broke. Find out how far from the column the knot was in the time to break the rope.
[hide=original wording]Mientras Teofrasto hablaba con Arist´oteles sobre la clasificaci´on de las plantas, ten´ıa un perro atado a una columna cil´ındrica perfectamente lisa de radio r, con una cuerda muy fina que envolv´ıa la columna y con un lazo. El perro ten´ıa el extremo libre de la cuerda cogido a su cuello. Al intentar alcanzar a Teofrasto, puso la cuerda tirante y ´esta se rompi´o. Averiguar a qu´e distancia de la columna estaba el nudo en el momento de romperse la cuerda.[/hide]
A square and equilateral triangle have the same perimeter. If the triangle has area $16\sqrt3$, what is the area of the square?

Cut pyramid $ABCD$ into $8$ equal and similar pyramids, if:
a) $AB = BC = CD$, $\angle ABC =\angle BCD = 90^o$, dihedral angle at edge $BC$ is right
b) all plane angles at vertex $B$ are right and $AB = BC = BD\sqrt2$.
Note. Whether there are other types of triangular pyramids that can be cut into any number similar to the original pyramids (their number is not necessarily $8$ and the pyramids are not necessarily equal to each other) is currently unknown
We have a polyhedron all faces of which are triangle. Let $P$ be an arbitrary point on one of the edges of this polyhedron such that $P$ is not the midpoint or endpoint of this edge. Assume that $P_0 = P$. In each step, connect $P_i$ to the centroid of one of the faces containing it. This line meets the perimeter of this face again at point $P_{i+1}$. Continue this process with $P_{i+1}$ and the other face containing $P_{i+1}$. Prove that by continuing this process, we cannot pass through all the faces. (The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of its medians.)

Two points $ P$ and $ Q$ lie in the interior of a regular tetrahedron $ ABCD$. Prove that angle $ PAQ < 60^\circ$.
You have three colors $\{\text{red}, \text{blue}, \text{green}\}$ with which you can color the faces of a regular octahedron (8 triangle sided polyhedron, which is two square based pyramids stuck together at their base), but you must do so in a way that avoids coloring adjacent pieces with the same color. How many different coloring schemes are possible? (Two coloring schemes are considered equivalent if one can be rotated to fit the other.)
We say that a finite set of points is [i]well scattered[/i] on the surface of a sphere if every open hemisphere (half the surface of the sphere without its boundary) contains at least one of the points. The set $\{ (1,0,0), (0,1,0), (0,0,1) \}$ is not well scattered on the unit sphere (the sphere of radius $1$ centered at the origin), but if you add the correct point $P$ it becomes well scattered. Find, with proof, all possible points $P$ that would make the set well scattered.
Each point of the 3-dimensional space is coloured with exactly one of the colours red, green and blue. Let $R$, $G$ and $B$, respectively, be the sets of the lengths of those segments in space whose both endpoints have the same colour (which means that both are red, both are green and both are blue, respectively). Prove that at least one of these three sets includes all non-negative reals.
