There are two equal circles of radius $1$ placed inside the triangle $ABC$ with side $BC = 6$. The circles are tangent to each other, one is inscribed in angle $B$, the other one is inscribed in angle $C$. (a) Prove that the centroid $M$ of the triangle $ABC$ does not lie inside any of the given circles. (b) Prove that if $M$ lies on one of the circles, then the triangle $ABC$ is isosceles.

Basil has a melon in a shape of a ball, $20$ in diameter. Using a long knife, Basil makes three mutually perpendicular cuts. Each cut carves a circular segment in a plane of the cut, $h$ deep ($h$ is a height of the segment). Does it necessarily follow that the melon breaks into two or more pieces if (a) $h = 17$ ? [i](6 points)[/i] (b) $h = 18$ ? [i](6 points)[/i]

Let $p = 491$ be prime. Let $S$ be the set of ordered $k$-tuples of nonnegative integers that are less than $p$. We say that a function $f\colon S \to S$ is \emph{$k$-murine} if, for all $u,v\in S$, $\langle f(u), f(v)\rangle \equiv \langle u,v\rangle \pmod p$, where $\langle(a_1,\dots ,a_k) , (b_1, \dots , b_k)\rangle = a_1b_1+ \dots +a_kb_k$ for any $(a_1, \dots a_k), (b_1, \dots b_k) \in S$. Let $m(k)$ be the number of $k$-murine functions. Compute the remainder when $m(1) + m(2) + m(3) + \cdots + m(p)$ is divided by $488$. [i]Proposed by Brandon Wang[/i]
