For breakfast, Milan is eating a piece of toast shaped like an equilateral triangle. On the piece of toast rests a single sesame seed that is one inch away from one side, two inches away from another side, and four inches away from the third side. He places a circular piece of cheese on top of the toast that is tangent to each side of the triangle. What is the area of this piece of cheese?

Given a triangle $ABC$, let $D$ be a point on segment $BC$. Construct the circumcircle $\omega$ of triangle $ABD$ and point $E$ on $\omega$ such that $CE$ is tangent to $\omega$ and $A, E$ are on opposite sides of $BC$ (as shown in diagram). If $\angle CAD = \angle ECD$ and $AC = 12$, $AB = 7$, find $AE$.

We are given an $n \times n$ board. Rows are labeled with numbers $1$ to $n$ downwards and columns are labeled with numbers $1$ to $n$ from left to right. On each field we write the number $x^2 + y^2$ where $(x, y)$ are its coordinates. We are given a figure and can initially place it on any field. In every step we can move the figure from one field to another if the other field has not already been visited and if at least one of the following conditions is satisfied:[list] [*] the numbers in those $2$ fields give the same remainders when divided by $n$, [*] those fields are point reflected with respect to the center of the board.[/list]Can all the fields be visited in case: [list=a][*] $n = 4$, [*] $n = 5$?[/list] [i]Josip Pupić[/i]

In a lottery there are $14$ balls, numbered from $1$ to $14$. Four of these balls are drawn at random. D'Angelo wins the lottery if he can split the four balls into two disjoint pairs, where the two balls in each pair have difference at least $5$. The probability that D'Angelo wins the lottery can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$, with $m,n$ relatively prime. Find $m+n$. [i]Proposed by Richard Chen[/i]

Let $I$ and $J$ be intervals. Let $\varphi,\psi:I\to\mathbb{R}$ be strictly increasing continuous functions and let $\Phi,\Psi:J\to\mathbb{R}$ be continuous functions. Suppose that $\varphi(x)+\psi(x)=x$ and $\Phi(u)+\Psi(u)=u$ holds for all $x\in I$ and $u\in J$. Show that if $f:I\to J$ is a continuous solution of the functional inequality $$f\big(\varphi(x)+\psi(y)\big)\le \Phi\big(f(x)\big)+\Psi\big(f(y)\big)\qquad (x,y\in I),$$then $\Phi\circ f\circ \varphi^{-1}$ and $\Psi\circ f\circ \psi^{-1}$ are convex functions.
