1964 IMO Shortlist, 6

In tetrahedron $ABCD$, vertex $D$ is connected with $D_0$, the centrod if $\triangle ABC$. Line parallel to $DD_0$ are drawn through $A,B$ and $C$. These lines intersect the planes $BCD, CAD$ and $ABD$ in points $A_2, B_1,$ and $C_1$, respectively. Prove that the volume of $ABCD$ is one third the volume of $A_1B_1C_1D_0$. Is the result if point $D_o$ is selected anywhere within $\triangle ABC$?

Point $P_1$ is located $600$ miles West of point $P_2$. At $7:00\text{AM}$ a car departs from $P_1$ and drives East at a speed of $50$mph. At $8:00\text{AM}$ another car departs from $P_2$ and drives West at a constant speed of $x$ miles per hour. If the cars meet each other exactly halfway between $P_1$ and $P_2$, what is the value of $x$?

Henry decides one morning to do a workout, and he walks $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of the way from his home to his gym. The gym is $2$ kilometers away from Henry's home. At that point, he changes his mind and walks $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of the way from where he is back toward home. When he reaches that point, he changes his mind again and walks $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of the distance from there back toward the gym. If Henry keeps changing his mind when he has walked $\tfrac{3}{4}$ of the distance toward either the gym or home from the point where he last changed his mind, he will get very close to walking back and forth between a point $A$ kilometers from home and a point $B$ kilometers from home. What is $|A-B|$? $\textbf{(A) } \frac{2}{3} \qquad \textbf{(B) } 1 \qquad \textbf{(C) } 1\frac{1}{5} \qquad \textbf{(D) } 1\frac{1}{4} \qquad \textbf{(E) } 1\frac{1}{2}$

In triangle $ABC$, the angles $\alpha=\angle A$ and $\beta=\angle B$ are acute. The isosceles triangle $ACD$ and $BCD$ with the bases $AC$ and $BC$ and $\angle ADC=\beta$, $\angle BEC=\alpha$ are constructed in the exterior of the triangle $ABC$. Let $O$ be the circumcenter of $\triangle ABC$. Prove that $DO+EO$ equals the perimeter of triangle $ABC$ if and only if $\angle ACB$ is right.

[b]4.[/b] Let $\left (H_{\alpha} \right ) $ be a system of sets of integers having the property that for any $\alpha _1 \neq \alpha _2 , H_{\alpha _1}\cap H_{\alpha _2}$ is a finite set and $H_{{\alpha} _1} \neq H_{{\alpha} _2}$. Prove that there exists a system $\left (H_{\alpha} \right )$ of this kind whose cardinality is that of the continuum. Prove further that if none of the intersections of two sets $H_\alpha$ contains more than $K$ elements, then the system $\left (H_{\alpha} \right ) $ is countable ($K$ is an arbitrary fixed integer).

Let $S$ be the square one of whose diagonals has endpoints $(0.1,0.7)$ and $(-0.1,-0.7)$. A point $v=(x,y)$ is chosen uniformly at random over all pairs of real numbers $x$ and $y$ such that $0\le x \le 2012$ and $0 \le y \le 2012$. Let $T(v)$ be a translated copy of $S$ centered at $v$.
