Let $A_1, A_2, . . . , A_{2021}$ be $2021$ points on the plane, no three collinear and $$\angle A_1A_2A_3 + \angle A_2A_3A_4 +... + \angle A_{2021}A_1A_2 = 360^o,$$ in which by the angle $\angle A_{i-1}A_iA_{i+1}$ we mean the one which is less than $180^o$ (assume that $A_{2022} =A_1$ and $A_0 = A_{2021}$). Prove that some of these angles will add up to $90^o$. [i]Proposed by Morteza Saghafian - Iran[/i]

At a certain university, the division of mathematical sciences consists of the departments of mathematics, statistics, and computer science. There are two male and two female professors in each department. A committee of six professors is to contain three men and three women and must also contain two professors from each of the three departments. Find the number of possible comittees that can be formed subject to these requirements.

A simple graph is called "divisibility", if it's possible to put distinct numbers on its vertices such that there is an edge between two vertices if and only if number of one of its vertices is divisible by another one. A simple graph is called "permutationary", if it's possible to put numbers $1,2,...,n$ on its vertices and there is a permutation $ \pi $ such that there is an edge between vertices $i,j$ if and only if $i>j$ and $\pi(i)< \pi(j)$ (it's not directed!) Prove that a simple graph is permutationary if and only if its complement and itself are divisibility. [i]Proposed by Morteza Saghafian[/i] .

For any non-negative integer $n$, we say that a permutation $(a_0,a_1,...,a_n)$ of $\{0,1,..., n\} $ is quadratic if $k + a_k$ is a square for $k = 0, 1,...,n$. Show that for any non-negative integer $n$, there exists a quadratic permutation of $\{0,1,..., n\}$.

Prove that it is possible at the conclusion of the tournament to be able to find $4$ teams , say $A, B, C$ and $D$ so that $A$ defeated $B, C$ and $D, B$ defeated $C$ and $D$ , and $C$ defeated $D$ .

1964 Putnam, B3

Let $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a continuous function with the following property: for all $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}$, the sequence $(a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ defined as $a_n = f(n\alpha)$ satisfies $\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = 0$. Is it necessarily true that $\lim_{x \to +\infty} f(x) = 0$?

2025 Azerbaijan Senior NMO, 1

Alice creates a sequence: For the first $2025$ terms of this sequence, she writes a random permutation of $\{1;2;3;...;2025\}$. To define the following terms, she does the following: She takes the last $2025$ terms of the sequence, and takes its median. How many values could this sequence's $3000$'th term could get? (Note: To find the median of $2025$ numbers, you write them in an increasing order,and take the number in the middle)

A regular triangle has side length $n{}$. We divided its sides into $n{}$ equal parts and drew a line segment parallel with each side through the dividing points. A lattice of $1+2+\ldots+(n+1)$ intersection points is thus formed. For which positive integers $n{}$ can this lattice be partitioned into triplets of points which are the vertices of a regular triangle of side length $1$?

With about six hours left on the van ride home from vacation, Wendy looks for something to do. She starts working on a project for the math team. There are sixteen students, including Wendy, who are about to be sophomores on the math team. Elected as a math team officer, one of Wendy's jobs is to schedule groups of the sophomores to tutor geometry students after school on Tuesdays. The way things have been done in the past, the same number of sophomores tutor every week, but the same group of students never works together. Wendy notices that there are even numbers of groups she could select whether she chooses $4$ or $5$ students at a time to tutor geometry each week: \begin{align*}\dbinom{16}4&=1820,\\\dbinom{16}5&=4368.\end{align*} Playing around a bit more, Wendy realizes that unless she chooses all or none of the students on the math team to tutor each week that the number of possible combinations of the sophomore math teamers is always even. This gives her an idea for a problem for the $2008$ Jupiter Falls High School Math Meet team test: \[\text{How many of the 2009 numbers on Row 2008 of Pascal's Triangle are even?}\] Wendy works the solution out correctly. What is her answer?

In the extensions of the sides $AB$ and $AC$ (in the direction of $B$ and $C$) we take the points $P$ and $Q$ respectively such that $HP=HQ$ and the points $B,C,P,Q$ are concyclic. Find the ratio $\tfrac{HP}{HA}$.

A cube 10x10x10 is constructed from 1000 white unit cubes. Polly and Velly play the following game: Velly chooses a certain amount of parallelepipeds 1x1x10, no two of which have a common vertex or an edge, and repaints them in black. Polly can choose an arbitrary number of unit cubes and ask Velly for their color. What’s the least amount of unit cubes she has to choose so that she can determine the color of each unit cube?

2023 Bulgarian Autumn Math Competition, 12.4

A set of points in the plane is called $\textit{good}$ if the distance between any two points in it is at most $1$. Let $f(n, d)$ be the largest positive integer such that in any $\textit{good}$ set of $3n$ points, there is a circle of diameter $d$, which contains at least $f(n, d)$ points. Prove that there exists a positive real $\epsilon$, such that for all $d \in (1-\epsilon, 1)$, the value of $f(n, d)$ does not depend on $d$ and find that value as a function of $n$.
