Let $S$ be a circle with radius $2$, let $S_1$ be a circle,with radius $1$ and tangent, internally to $S$ in $B$ and let $S_2$ be a circle, with radius $1$ and tangent to $S_1$ in $A$, but $S_2$ isn't tangent to $S$. If $K$ is the point of intersection of the line $AB$ and the circle $S$, prove that $K$ is in the circle $S_2$.

A triangle has side lengths $a, b, c$ and angles $A, B, C$ as usual (with $b$ opposite $B$ etc). Show that if $$a(1 - 2 \cos A) + b(1 - 2 \cos B) + c(1 - 2 \cos C) = 0$$ then the triangle is equilateral.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcircle $\Omega$ and incentre $I$. A line $\ell$ intersects the lines $AI$, $BI$, and $CI$ at points $D$, $E$, and $F$, respectively, distinct from the points $A$, $B$, $C$, and $I$. The perpendicular bisectors $x$, $y$, and $z$ of the segments $AD$, $BE$, and $CF$, respectively determine a triangle $\Theta$. Show that the circumcircle of the triangle $\Theta$ is tangent to $\Omega$.

Suppose convex hexagon $ \text{HEXAGN}$ has $ 120^\circ$-rotational symmetry about a point $ P$—that is, if you rotate it $ 120^\circ$ about $ P$, it doesn't change. If $ PX\equal{}1$, find the area of triangle $ \triangle{GHX}$.

What is the maximum number of diagonals of a regular $12$-gon which can be selected such that no two of the chosen diagonals are perpendicular? Note: sides are not diagonals and diagonals which intersect outside the $12$-gon at right angles are still considered perpendicular. [i]2018 CCA Math Bonanza Tiebreaker Round #1[/i]

Given an infinite sequence of numbers $a_1, a_2,...$, in which there are no two equal members. Segment $a_i, a_{i+1}, ..., a_{i+m-1}$ of this sequence is called a monotone segment of length $m$, if $a_i < a_{i+1} <...<a_{i+m-1}$ or $a_i > a_{i+1} >... > a_{i+m-1}$. It turned out that for each natural $k$ the term $a_k$ is contained in some monotonic segment of length $k + 1$. Prove that there exists a natural $N$ such that the sequence $a_N , a_{N+1} ,...$ monotonic.

Juana and Juan have to write each one an ordered list of fractions so that the two lists have the same number of fractions and that the difference between the sum of all the fractions from Juana's list and the sum of all fractions from Juan's list is greater than $123$. The fractions in Juana's list are $$\frac{1^2}{1}, \frac{2^2}{3},\frac{3^2}{5},\frac{4^2}{7},\frac{5^2}{9},...$$ And the fractions in John's list are $$\frac{1^2}{3}, \frac{2^2}{5},\frac{3^2}{7},\frac{4^2}{9},\frac{5^2}{11},...$$ Find the least amount of fractions that each one must write to achieve the objective.
