Let $ABCDE$ be a convex pentagon with $CD= DE$ and $\angle EDC \ne 2 \cdot \angle ADB$. Suppose that a point $P$ is located in the interior of the pentagon such that $AP =AE$ and $BP= BC$. Prove that $P$ lies on the diagonal $CE$ if and only if area $(BCD)$ + area $(ADE)$ = area $(ABD)$ + area $(ABP)$. (Hungary)

Petya drew a pentagon $ABCDE$ on the plane. After that, Vasya marked all the points $S$ in a given half-space relative to the plane of the pentagon so that in the pyramid $SABCD$ exactly two side faces are perpendicular to the plane of the base $ABCD$, and the height is $1$. How many points could have Vasya?

Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle with side length $1$. This triangle is rotated by some angle about its center to form triangle $DEF.$ The intersection of $ABC$ and $DEF$ is an equilateral hexagon with an area that is $\frac{4} {5}$ the area of $ABC.$ The side length of this hexagon can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. What is $m+n$? [i]Author: Ray Li[/i]

Let $S$ be the set $\{-1, 1\}^n$, that is, $n$-tuples such that each coordinate is either $-1$ or $1$. For \[s = (s_1, s_2, \ldots, s_n), t = (t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_n) \in \{-1, 1\}^n,\] define $s \odot t = (s_1t_1, s_2t_2, \ldots, s_nt_n)$. Let $c$ be a positive constant, let $f : S \to \{-1, 1\}$ be a function such that there are at least $(1-c) \cdot 2^{2n}$ pairs $(s, t)$ with $s, t \in S$ such that $f(s \odot t) = f(s)f(t)$. Show that there exists a function $f'$ such that $f'(s \odot t) = f'(s)f'(t)$ for all $s, t \in S$ and $f(s) = f'(s)$ for at least $(1-10c) \cdot 2^n$ values of $s \in S$.

A regular hexagon has positive integer side length. A laser is emitted from one of the hexagon’s corners, and is reflected off the edges of the hexagon until it hits another corner. Let $a$ be the distance that the laser travels. What is the smallest possible value of $a^2$ such that $a > 2019$? You need not simplify/compute exponents.

The integer $202020$ is a multiple of $91$. For each positive integer $n$, show how $n$ additional $2$'s may be inserted into the digits of $202020$ such that the resulting $(n+6)$-digit number is also a multiple of $91$.
