Let points $A$ and $B$ be on circle $\omega$ centered at $O$. Suppose that $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$ are circles not containing $O$ which are internally tangent to $\omega$ at $A$ and $B$, respectively. Let $\omega_A$ and $\omega_B$ intersect at $C$ and $D$ such that $D$ is inside triangle $ABC$. Suppose that line $BC$ meets $\omega$ again at $E$ and let line $EA$ intersect $\omega_A$ at $F$. If $ FC \perp CD $, prove that $O$, $C$, and $D$ are collinear.

A deck of $8056$ cards has $2014$ ranks numbered $1$–$2014$. Each rank has four suits - hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades. Each card has a rank and a suit, and no two cards have the same rank and the same suit. How many subsets of the set of cards in this deck have cards from an odd number of distinct ranks?

On a table with $25$ columns and $300$ rows, Kostya painted all its cells in three colors. Then, Lesha, looking at the table, for each row names one of the three colors and marks in that row all cells of that color (if there are no cells of that color in that row, he does nothing). After that, all columns that have at least a marked square will be deleted.
Kostya wants to be left as few as possible columns in the table, and Lesha wants there to be as many as possible columns in the table. What is the largest number of columns Lesha can guarantee to leave?

In scalene $\triangle ABC$, $I$ is the incenter, $I_a$ is the $A$-excenter, $D$ is the midpoint of arc $BC$ of the circumcircle of $ABC$ not containing $A$, and $M$ is the midpoint of side $BC$. Extend ray $IM$ past $M$ to point $P$ such that $IM = MP$. Let $Q$ be the intersection of $DP$ and $MI_a$, and $R$ be the point on the line $MI_a$ such that $AR\parallel DP$. Given that $\frac{AI_a}{AI}=9$, the ratio $\frac{QM} {RI_a}$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$ for two relatively prime positive integers $m,n$. Compute $m+n$.

Two wheels with fixed hubs, each having a mass of $1 \text{ kg}$, start from rest, and forces are applied as shown. Assume the hubs and spokes are massless, so that the rotational inertia is $I = mR^2$. In order to impart identical angular accelerations about their respective hubs, how large must $F_2$ be?
