Given a regular dodecahedron of side $a$. Take two pairs of opposite faces: $E, E' $ and $F, F'$. For the pair $E, E'$ take the line joining the centers of the faces and take points $A$ and $C$ on the line each a distance $m$ outside one of the faces. Similarly, take $B$ and $D$ on the line joining the centers of $F, F'$ each a distance $m$ outside one of the faces. Show that $ABCD$ is a rectangle and find the ratio of its side lengths.

XMO (China) 2-15 - geometry, 11.4

We define a beehive of order $n$ as follows: a beehive of order 1 is one hexagon To construct a beehive of order $n$, take a beehive of order $n-1$ and draw a layer of hexagons in the exterior of these hexagons. See diagram for examples of $n=2,3$ Initially some hexagons are infected by a virus. If a hexagon has been infected, it will always be infected. Otherwise, it will be infected if at least 5 out of the 6 neighbours are infected. Let $f(n)$ be the minimum number of infected hexagons in the beginning so that after a finite time, all hexagons become infected. Find $f(n)$.

Sugar Station sells $44$ different kinds of candies, packaged one to a box. Each box is priced at a positive integer number of cents, and it costs $\$1.51$ to buy one of every kind. (There is no discount based on the number of candies in a purchase.) Unfortunately, Anna only has $\$0.75$. [list=a] [*] Show that Anna can buy at least $22$ boxes, each containing a different candy. [*] Show that Anna can do even better, buying at least $25$ boxes, each containing a different candy. [/list]

Two bored millionaires, Bilion and Trilion, decide to play a game. They each have a sufficient supply of $\$ 1, \$ 2,\$ 5$, and $\$ 10$ bills. Starting with Bilion, they take turns putting one of the bills they have into a pile. The game ends when the bills in the pile total exactly $\$1{,}000{,}000$, and whoever makes the last move wins the $\$1{,}000{,}000$ in the pile (if the pile is worth more than $\$1{,}000{,}000$ after a move, then the person who made the last move loses instead, and the other person wins the amount of cash in the pile). Assuming optimal play, how many dollars will the winning player gain? [i]Proposed by Yannick Yao[/i]
