Let $O$ be the circumcentre, and $\Omega$ be the circumcircle of an acute-angled triangle $ABC$. Let $P$ be an arbitrary point on $\Omega$, distinct from $A$, $B$, $C$, and their antipodes in $\Omega$. Denote the circumcentres of the triangles $AOP$, $BOP$, and $COP$ by $O_A$, $O_B$, and $O_C$, respectively. The lines $\ell_A$, $\ell_B$, $\ell_C$ perpendicular to $BC$, $CA$, and $AB$ pass through $O_A$, $O_B$, and $O_C$, respectively. Prove that the circumcircle of triangle formed by $\ell_A$, $\ell_B$, and $\ell_C$ is tangent to the line $OP$.

A convex $n$-gon $A_1A_2\dots A_n$ $(n>3)$ is divided into triangles by non-intersecting diagonals.
For every vertex the number of sides issuing from it is even, except for the vertices
$A_{i_1},A_{i_2},\dots,A_{i_k}$, where $1\leq i_1<\dots<i_k\leq n$. Prove that $k$ is even and
\[n\equiv i_1-i_2+\dots+i_{k-1}-i_k\pmod3\]
if $k>0$ and
\[n\equiv0\pmod3\mbox{ for }k=0.\]
Note that this leads to generalization of one recent Tournament of towns problem about triangulating of square.

A rigid (solid) cylinder is put at the top of a frictionless $25^\circ$-to-the-horizontal incline that is $3.0 \, \text{m}$ high. It is then released so that it rolls down the incline. If $v$ is the speed at the bottom of the incline, what is $v^2$, in $\text{m}^2/\text{s}^2$?
[i](B. Dejean and Ahaan Rungta, 3 points)[/i]
[b]Note[/b]: Since there is no friction, the cylinder cannot roll, and thus the problem is flawed. Two answers were accepted and given full credit.

Jerry purchased some stock for $ \$14,400$ at the same time that Susan purchased a bond for $ \$6,250$. Jerry’s investment went up $20$ percent the first year, fell $10$ percent the second year, and rose another $20$ percent the third year. Susan’s investment grew at a constant rate of compound interest for three years. If both investments are worth the same after three years, what was the annual percentage increase of Susan’s investment?
