Suppose that $ ABCD$ is a cyclic quadrilateral. Let $ E \equal{} AC\cap BD$ and $ F \equal{} AB\cap CD$. Denote by $ H_{1}$ and $ H_{2}$ the orthocenters of triangles $ EAD$ and $ EBC$, respectively. Prove that the points $ F$, $ H_{1}$, $ H_{2}$ are collinear.
Original formulation:
Let $ ABC$ be a triangle. A circle passing through $ B$ and $ C$ intersects the sides $ AB$ and $ AC$ again at $ C'$ and $ B',$ respectively. Prove that $ BB'$, $CC'$ and $ HH'$ are concurrent, where $ H$ and $ H'$ are the orthocentres of triangles $ ABC$ and $ AB'C'$ respectively.

One day in a room there were several inhabitants of an island where only truth-tellers and liars live. Three of them made the following statements:
[list]
[*] There are no more than three of us here. We are all liars.
[*] There are no more than four of us here. Not all of us are liars.
[*] There are five of us here. At least three of us are liars.
[/list]
How many people are in the room and how many of them are liars?

Let $K$ and $M$ be points on the side $AB$ of a triangle $\triangle{ABC}$, and let $L$ and $N$ be points on the side $AC$. The point $K$ is between $M$ and $B$, and the point $L$ is between $N$ and $C$. If $\frac{BK}{KM}=\frac{CL}{LN}$, then prove that the orthocentres of the triangles $\triangle{ABC}$, $\triangle{AKL}$ and $\triangle{AMN}$ lie on one line.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. For $i$ and $j$ in $\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$, let $s(i, j)$ be the number of pairs $(a, b)$ of nonnegative integers satisfying $a i+b j=n$. Let $S$ be the $n$-by-n matrix whose $(i, j)$-entry is $s(i, j)$.
For example, when $n=5$, we have $S=\left[\begin{array}{lllll}6 & 3 & 2 & 2 & 2 \\ 3 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 2\end{array}\right]$.
Compute the determinant of $S$.

Without overlapping, hexagonal tiles are placed inside an isosceles right triangle of area $1$ whose hypotenuse is horizontal. The tiles are similar to the figure below, but are not necessarily all the same size.[asy]
unitsize(.85cm);
draw((0,0)--(1,0)--(1,1)--(2,2)--(-1,2)--(0,1)--(0,0),linewidth(1));
draw((0,2)--(0,1)--(1,1)--(1,2),dashed);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(0.5,0),S);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(0,0.5),W);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(1,0.5),E);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(0,1.5),E);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(1,1.5),W);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(-0.5,2),N);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(0.5,2),N);
label("\footnotesize $a$",(1.5,2),N);
[/asy] The longest side of each tile is parallel to the hypotenuse of the triangle, and the horizontal side of length $a$ of each tile lies between this longest side of the tile and the hypotenuse of the triangle. Furthermore, if the longest side of a tile is farther from the hypotenuse than the longest side of another tile, then the size of the first tile is larger or equal to the size of the second tile. Find the smallest value of $\lambda$ such that every such configuration of tiles has a total area less than $\lambda$.
