[i]Wind chill[/i] is a measure of how cold people feel when exposed to wind outside. A good estimate for wind chill can be found using this calculation: $$(\text{wind chill}) = (\text{air temperature}) - 0.7 \times (\text{wind speed}),$$ where temperature is measured in degrees Fahrenheit $(^{\circ}\text{F})$ and and the wind speed is measured in miles per hour (mph). Suppose the air temperature is $36^{\circ}\text{F} $ and the wind speed is $18$ mph. Which of the following is closest to the approximate wind chill? $\textbf{(A)}~18\qquad\textbf{(B)}~23\qquad\textbf{(C)}~28\qquad\textbf{(D)}~32\qquad\textbf{(E)}~35$

Radius of the circle $\omega_A$ with centre at vertex $A$ of a triangle $\triangle{ABC}$ is equal to the radius of the excircle tangent to $BC$.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = 20$ and $AC = 22$. Suppose its incircle touches $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{CA}$, and $\overline{AB}$ at $D$, $E$, and $F$ respectively, and $P$ is the foot of the perpendicular from $D$ to $\overline{EF}$. If $\angle BPC = 90^{\circ}$, then compute $BC^2$. [i]Proposed by Ankan Bhattacharya[/i]

In a triangle, a symmedian is a line through a vertex that is symmetric to the median with the respect to the internal bisector (all relative to the same vertex). In the triangle $ABC$, the median $m_a$ meets $BC$ at $A'$ and the circumcircle again at $A_1$. The symmedian $s_a$ meets $BC$ at $M$ and the circumcircle again at $A_2$. Given that the line $A_1A_2$ contains the circumcenter $O$ of the triangle, prove that: [i](a) [/i]$\frac{AA'}{AM} = \frac{b^2+c^2}{2bc} ;$ [i](b) [/i]$1+4b^2c^2 = a^2(b^2+c^2)$

Alice and Bob are playing a game, starting with a binary string$ b$ of length $2022$. In each step, the rightmost digit of the string is deleted. If the deleted digit was $1$, Alice gets to choose which digit she wants to append on the left. Otherwise, Bob gets to choose the digit to append on the left of the string. Alice would like to turn the string $b$ into the all-zero string $\underbrace{00 . . . 0}_{2022}$, in the least number of steps possible, while Bob would like to maximize the number of steps necessary, or prevent Alice from doing this at all. a) Is there a string $b$ for which Bob can prevent Alice in her goal, if both players play optimally? b) If the answer to part a is yes, find all such strings $b$. If the answer is no, find the maximal game time and find the set of strings $b$ for which the game time is maximal.

When Walter drove up to the gasoline pump, he noticed that his gasoline tank was $\frac{1}{8}$ full. He purchased $7.5$ gallons of gasoline for $ \$10$.
