2012 India IMO Training Camp, 1

The cirumcentre of the cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ is $O$. The second intersection point of the circles $ABO$ and $CDO$, other than $O$, is $P$, which lies in the interior of the triangle $DAO$. Choose a point $Q$ on the extension of $OP$ beyond $P$, and a point $R$ on the extension of $OP$ beyond $O$. Prove that $\angle QAP=\angle OBR$ if and only if $\angle PDQ=\angle RCO$.

Let $n>4$ be a positive integer, which is divisible by $4$. We denote by $A_n$ the sum of the odd positive divisors of $n$. We also denote $B_n$ the sum of the even positive divisors of $n$, excluding the number $n$ itself. Find the least possible value of the expression $$f(n)=B_n-2A_n,$$ for all possible values of $n$, as well as for which positive integers $n$ this minimum value is attained.

At each of the given $n$ points on a circle, either $+1$ or $-1$ is written. The following operation is performed: between any two consecutive numbers on the circle their product is written, and the initial $n$ numbers are deleted. Suppose that, for any initial arrangement of $+1$ and $-1$ on the circle, after finitely many operations all the numbers on the circle will be equal to $+1$. Prove that $n$ is a power of two.

p1. Bahri lives quite close to the clock gadang in the city of Bukit Tinggi West Sumatra. Bahri has an antique clock. On Monday $4$th March $2013$ at $10.00$ am, Bahri antique clock is two minutes late in comparison with Clock Tower. A day later, the antique clock was four minutes late compared to the Clock Tower. March $6$, $2013$ the clock is late six minutes compared to Jam Gadang. The following days Bahri observed that his antique clock exhibited the same pattern of delay.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = 5$, $BC = 7$, and $CA = 8$, and let $D$ be a point on arc $\widehat{BC}$ of its circumcircle $\Omega$. Suppose that the angle bisectors of $\angle ADB$ and $\angle ADC$ meet $AB$ and $AC$ at $E$ and $F$, respectively, and that $EF$ and $BC$ meet at $G$. Line $GD$ meets $\Omega$ at $T$.

Fuzzy likes isosceles trapezoids. He can choose lengths from $1, 2, \dots, 8$, where he may choose any amount of each length. He takes a multiset of three integers from $1, \dots, 8$. From this multiset, one length will become a base length, one will become a diagonal length, and one will become a leg length. He uses each element as either a diagonal, leg, or base length exactly once. Fuzzy is happy if he can use these lengths to make an isosceles trapezoid such that the undecided base has nonzero rational length. How many multiset choices can he make? (Multisets are unordered) [i]Proposed by Timothy Qian[/i]

Alice and Bob take $a$ and $b$ candies respectively, where $0\leq a,b\leq3$, from a pile of $6$ identical candies. They draw the candies one at a time, but one person may draw multiple candies in a row. For example, if $a=2$ and $b=3$, a possible order of drawing could be Alice, Bob, Bob, Alice, Bob. In how many ways (considering order of drawing and values of $a$ and $b$) can this happen? [i]2017 CCA Math Bonanza Team Round #6[/i]
