Let $ABC$ be a non isosceles triangle with circumcircle $(O)$ and incircle $(I)$. Denote $(O_1)$ as the circle that external tangent to $(O)$ at $A'$ and also tangent to the lines $AB,AC$ at $A_b,A_c$ respectively. Define the circles $(O_2), (O_3)$ and the points $B', C', B_c , B_a, C_a, C_b$ similarly. 1. Denote J as the radical center of $(O_1), (O_2), (O_3) $and suppose that $JA'$ intersects $(O_1)$ at the second point $X, JB'$ intersects $(O_2)$ at the second point Y , JC' intersects $(O_3)$ at the second point $Z$. Prove that the circle $(X Y Z)$ is tangent to $(O_1), (O_2), (O_3)$. 2. Prove that $AA', BB', CC'$ are concurrent at the point $M$ and $3$ points $I,M,O$ are collinear.

p1. Circle $M$ is the incircle of ABC, while circle $N$ is the incircle of $ACD$. Circles $M$ and $N$ are tangent at point $E$. If side length $AD = x$ cm, $AB = y$ cm, $BC = z$ cm, find the length of side $DC$ (in terms of $x, y$, and $z$).

The address of the house on Jalan Bahagia will be numbered with the following rules: $\bullet$ One side of the road is numbered with consecutive even numbers starting from number $2$. $\bullet$ The opposite side is numbered with an odd number starting from number $3$. $\bullet$ In a row of even numbered houses, there is some land vacant house that has not been built. $\bullet$ The first house numbered $2$ has a neighbor next door. When the RT management ordered the numbers of the house, it is known that the cost of making each digit is $12.000$ Rp. For that, the total cost to be incurred is $1.020.000$ Rp. It is also known that the cost of all even-sided house numbers is $132.000$ Rp. cheaper than the odd side. When the land is empty later a house has been built, the number of houses on the even and odd sides is the same. Determine the number of houses that are now on Jalan Bahagia . p3. Given the following problem: Each element in the set $A = \{10, 11, 12,...,2008\}$ multiplied by each element in the set $B = \{21, 22, 23,...,99\}$. The results are then added together to give value of $X$. Determine the value of $X$. Someone answers the question by multiplying $2016991$ with $4740$. How can you explain that how does that person make sense? p4. Let $P$ be the set of all positive integers between $0$ and $2008$ which can be expressed as the sum of two or more consecutive positive integers . (For example: $11 = 5 + 6$, $90 = 29 + 30 + 31$, $100 = 18 + 19 +20 + 21 + 22$. So $11, 90, 100$ are some members of $P$.) Find the sum of of all members of $P$. p5. A four-digit number will be formed from the numbers at $0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5$ provided that the numbers in the number are not repeated, and the number formed is a multiple of $3$. What is the probability that the number formed has a value less than $3000$?

A $ 9 \times 9$ square is divided into unit squares. Is it possible to fill each unit square with a number $ 1, 2,..., 9$ in such a way that, whenever one places the tile so that it fully covers nine unit squares, the tile will cover nine different numbers?

Durer Math Competition CD Finals - geometry, 2009.C3

Dürer's $n \times m$ garden is surgically divided into $n \times m$ unit squares, and in the middle of one of these squares, he planted his favourite petunia. Dürer's gardener struggles with a mole, trying to drive him out of the magnificent garden, so he builds an underground wall on the edge of the garden. The only problem is that the mole managed to stay inside the walls.. When the mole meets a wall, it changes it's direction as if it was "reflected", that is, proceeding his route in the direction that includes the same angle with the wall as his direction before. The mole starts beneath the petunia, in a direction that includes a $45^o$ angle with the walls. Is it possible for the mole to cross the petunia in a direction perpendicular to it's original direction? (Think in terms of $n,m$.)

For how many positive integers $n\le100$ is it true that $10n$ has exactly three times as many positive divisors as $n$ has?

Russian TST 2014, P3

Players $A$ and $B$ play a "paintful" game on the real line. Player $A$ has a pot of paint with four units of black ink. A quantity $p$ of this ink suffices to blacken a (closed) real interval of length $p$. In every round, player $A$ picks some positive integer $m$ and provides $1/2^m $ units of ink from the pot. Player $B$ then picks an integer $k$ and blackens the interval from $k/2^m$ to $(k+1)/2^m$ (some parts of this interval may have been blackened before). The goal of player $A$ is to reach a situation where the pot is empty and the interval $[0,1]$ is not completely blackened. Decide whether there exists a strategy for player $A$ to win in a finite number of moves.

Simon expands factored polynomials with his favorite AI, ChatSFFT. However, he has not paid for a premium ChatSFFT account, so when he goes to expand $(m - a)(n - b),$ where $a, b, m, n$ are integers, ChatSFFT returns the sum of the two factors instead of the product. However, when Simon plugs in certain pairs of integer values for $m$ and $n,$ he realizes that the value of ChatSFFT’s result is the same as the real result in terms of $a$ and $b$. How many such pairs are there?

On each turn, one can choose two numbers from the tuple such that their sum is a perfect square and swap them to obtain a new tuple.
