Let $ABC$ be a triangle and $m$ a line which intersects the sides $AB$ and $AC$ at interior points $D$ and $F$, respectively, and intersects the line $BC$ at a point $E$ such that $C$ lies between $B$ and $E$. The parallel lines from the points $A$, $B$, $C$ to the line $m$ intersect the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ at the points $A_1$, $B_1$ and $C_1$, respectively (apart from $A$, $B$, $C$). Prove that the lines $A_1E$ , $B_1F$ and $C_1D$ pass through the same point. [i]Greece[/i]

In a tennis tournament, any two of the $n$ participants played a match (the winner of a match gets $1$ point, the loser gets $0$). The scores after the tournament were $r_1\le r_2\le\ldots\le r_n$. A match between two players is called wrong if after it the winner has a score less than or equal to that of the loser. Consider the set $I=\{i|r_1\ge i\}$. Prove that the number of wrong matches is not less than $\sum_{i\in I}(r_i-i+1)$, and show that this value is realizable

Suppose that $f:P(\mathbb N)\longrightarrow \mathbb N$ and $A$ is a subset of $\mathbb N$. We call $f$ $A$-predicting if the set $\{x\in \mathbb N|x\notin A, f(A\cup x)\neq x \}$ is finite. Prove that there exists a function that for every subset $A$ of natural numbers, it's $A$-predicting. [i]proposed by Sepehr Ghazi-Nezami[/i]

2003 Cuba MO, 3

A $4 \times 4$ board has all its squares painted white. An allowed operation is to choose a rectangle that contains $3$ squares and paint each of the boxes as follows: a) If the box is white then it is painted black. b) If the box is black then it is painted white. Prove that by applying the allowed operation several times, it is impossible get the entire board painted black.

In the game of Avalon, there are $10$ players, $4$ of which are bad. A [i]quest[/i] is a subset of those players. A quest fails if it contains at least one bad player. A randomly chosen quest of $3$ players happens to fail. What is the probability that there is exactly one bad player in the failed quest? [i]2018 CCA Math Bonanza Team Round #3[/i]

A piece of paper is folded in half. A second fold is made at an angle $ \phi$ ($ 0^\circ < \phi < 90^\circ$) to the first, and a cut is made as shown below. [img]12881[/img] When the piece of paper is unfolded, the resulting hole is a polygon. Let $ O$ be one of its vertices. Suppose that all the other vertices of the hole lie on a circle centered at $ O$, and also that $ \angle XOY \equal{} 144^\circ$, where $ X$ and $ Y$ are the the vertices of the hole adjacent to $ O$. Find the value(s) of $ \phi$ (in degrees).

On February 13 [i]The Oshkosh Northwester[/i] listed the length of daylight as 10 hours and 24 minutes, the sunrise was $6:57 \textsc{am}$, and the sunset as $8:15 \textsc{pm}$. The length of daylight and sunrise were correct, but the sunset was wrong.

Let $\,S\,$ be a finite set of points in three-dimensional space. Let $\,S_{x},\,S_{y},\,S_{z}\,$ be the sets consisting of the orthogonal projections of the points of $\,S\,$ onto the $yz$-plane, $zx$-plane, $xy$-plane, respectively.

Let $n \geq 4$ be an integer. Consider a regular $2n-$gon for which to every vertex, an integer is assigned, which we call the value of said vertex. If four distinct vertices of this $2n-$gon form a rectangle, we say that the sum of the values of these vertices is a rectangular sum. Determine for which (not necessarily positive) integers $m$ the integers $m + 1, m + 2, . . . , m + 2n$ can be assigned to the vertices (in some order) in such a way that every rectangular sum is a prime number. (Prime numbers are positive by definition.)
