We have a $6 \times 6$ square, partitioned into 36 unit squares. We select some of these unit squares and draw some of their diagonals, subject to the condition that no two diagonals we draw have any common points. What is the maximal number of diagonals that we can draw?

Dave's Amazing Hotel has $3$ floors. If you press the up button on the elevator from the $3$rd floor, you are immediately transported to the $1$st floor. Similarly, if you press the down button from the $1$st floor, you are immediately transported to the $3$rd floor. Dave gets in the elevator at the $1$st floor and randomly presses up or down at each floor. After doing this $482$ times, the probability that Dave is on the first floor can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. What is the remainder when $m+n$ is divided by $1000$?

There are ten cards with the number $a$ on each, ten with $b$ and ten with $c$, where $a, b$ and $c$ are distinct real numbers. For every five cards, it is possible to add another five cards so that the sum of the numbers on these ten cards is $0$. Prove that one of $a, b$ and $c$ is $0$.

The numbers 1 through 9 can be arranged in the triangles labeled $a$ through $i$ illustrated below so that the numbers in each of the $2\times2$ triangles sum to the value $n$; that is \[a+b+c+d=b+e+f+g=d+g+h+i=n.\] For each possible sum $n$, show an arrangement, labeled with the sum as shown below. Prove that there are no possible arrangements for any other values of $n$.

14 students attend the IMO training camp. Every student has at least $k$ favourite numbers. The organisers want to give each student a shirt with one of the student's favourite numbers on the back. Determine the least $k$, such that this is always possible if:
$a)$ The students can be arranged in a circle such that every two students sitting next to one another have different numbers.
$b)$ $7$ of the students are boys, the rest are girls, and there isn't a boy and a girl with the same number.

In the Cartesian plane consider the hyperbola
\[\Gamma=\{M(x,y)\in\mathbb{R}^2 \vert \frac{x^2}{4}-y^2=1\} \]
and a conic $\Gamma '$, disjoint from $\Gamma$. Let $n(\Gamma ,\Gamma ')$ be the maximal number of pairs of points $(A,A')\in\Gamma\times\Gamma '$ such that $AA'\le BB'$, for any $(B,B')$
For each $p\in\{0,1,2,4\}$, find the equation of $\Gamma'$ for which $n(\Gamma ,\Gamma ')=p$. Justify the answer.

Let $a_1, a_2, a_3, \dots$ be an infinite sequence of positive integers, and let $N$ be a positive integer. Suppose that, for each $n > N$, $a_n$ is equal to the number of times $a_{n-1}$ appears in the list $a_1, a_2, \dots, a_{n-1}$.
Prove that at least one of the sequence $a_1, a_3, a_5, \dots$ and $a_2, a_4, a_6, \dots$ is eventually periodic.
(An infinite sequence $b_1, b_2, b_3, \dots$ is eventually periodic if there exist positive integers $p$ and $M$ such that $b_{m+p} = b_m$ for all $m \ge M$.)

Let $ABCD$ be a cyclic quadrilateral with circumcircle $\Gamma$, and let $E$ be the midpoint of the diagonal $BD$. Let $I_1, I_2, I_3, I_4$ be the centers of the circles inscribed into triangles $\vartriangle ABE$, $\vartriangle ADE$, $\vartriangle BCE$, $\vartriangle CDE$, in that order. Prove that the circles $AI_1I_2$ and $CI_3I_4$ intersect $\Gamma$ at diametrically opposite points.
Remark: For a circle $C$ and points $X, Y \in C$, we say that $X$ and $Y$ are diametrically opposite if $XY$ is a diameter of $C$.

From an arbitrary point $O$ inside a convex $n$-gon, perpendiculars are drawn on (extensions of the) sides of the $n$-gon. Along each perpendicular a vector is constructed, starting from $O$, directed towards the side onto which the perpendicular is drawn, and of length equal to half the length of the corresponding side. Find the sum of these vectors.

Let $\vartriangle ABC$ be a triangle with $\angle BAC = 90^o$, $\angle ABC = 60^o$, and $\angle BCA = 30^o$ and $BC = 4$. Let the incircle of $\vartriangle ABC$ meet sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$ at points $A_0$, $B_0$, $C_0$, respectively. Let $\omega_A$, $\omega_B$, $\omega_C$ denote the circumcircles of triangles $\vartriangle B_0IC_0$ , $\vartriangle C_0IA_0$ , $\vartriangle A_0IB_0$, respectively. We construct triangle $T_A$ as follows: let $A_0B_0$ meet $\omega_B$ for the second time at $A_1\ne A_0$, let $A_0C_0$ meet $\omega_C$ for the second time at $A_2\ne A_0$, and let $T_A$ denote the triangle $\vartriangle A_0A_1A_2$. Construct triangles $T_B$, $T_C$ similarly. If the sum of the areas of triangles $T_A$, $T_B$, $T_C$ equals $\sqrt{m} - n$ for positive integers $m$, $n$, find $m + n$.
