You are given a right triangle $ABC$ with $\angle ACB = 90^\circ$. Let $W_A , W_B$ respectively be the midpoints of the smaller arcs $BC$ and $AC$ of the circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$, and $N_A , N_B$ respectively be the midpoints of the larger arcs $BC$ and $AC$ of this circle. Denote by $P$ and $Q$ the points of intersection of segment $AB$ with the lines $N_AW_B$ and $N_BW_A$, respectively. Prove that $AP = BQ$. [i]Proposed by Oleksiy Masalitin[/i]

It takes a Raymond thirty minutes to change a light bulb. It takes a Bryan forty-five minutes to change a light bulb.

[b]p11.[/b] Joe has lost his $2$ sets of keys. However, he knows that he placed his keys in one of his $12$ mailboxes, each labeled with a different positive integer from $1$ to $12$. Joe plans on opening the $2$ mailbox labeled $1$ to see if any of his keys are there. However, a strong gust of wind blows by, opening mailboxes $11$ and $12$, revealing that they are empty. If Joe decides to open one of the mailboxes labeled $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $6$, $7$, $8$, $9$ , or $10$, the probability that he finds at least one of his sets of keys can be expressed as $\frac{a}{b}$, where a and b are relatively prime positive integers. Find the sum $a + b$. Note that a single mailbox can contain $0$, $1$, or $2$ sets of keys, and the mailboxes his sets of keys were placed in are determined independently at random. [b]p12.[/b] As we all know, the top scientists have recently proved that the Earth is a flat disc. Bob is standing on Earth.

Unfortunately, the cube is about to be added to some scalding coffee! In $10$ seconds, it must return to its initial vertex, so it can get off and escape. If the probability the ant will avoid a tragic doom can be expressed as $\frac{a}{3^{10}}$ , where $a$ is a positive integer, find $a$. Clarification: The ant needs to be on its initial vertex in exactly $10$ seconds, no more or less. [b]p15.[/b] Raymond’s new My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Collector’s book arrived in the mail!

If the desired area in square inches is $a\pi+b\sqrt{c}$ where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is squarefree, find $a + b + c$. PS. You should use hide for answers.

One day Joshua and Alexis find their sister Wendy's copy of the $2007$ iTest. They decide to see if they can work any of the problems and are proud to find that indeed they are able to work some of them, but their middle school math team experience is still not enough to help with the harder problems. Alexis comes across a problem she really likes, partly because she has never worked one like it before: \[\text{What is the smallest positive integer }k\text{ such that the number}\binom{2k}k\text{ ends in two zeroes?}\] Joshua is the kind of mathematical explorer who likes to alter problems, make them harder, or generalize them. So, he proposes the following problem to his sister Alexis: \[\text{What is the smallest positive integer }k\text{ such that the number}\binom{2k}k\text{ ends }\text{in two zeroes when expressed in base 12?}\] Alexis solves the problem correctly. What is her answer (expressed in base $10$)?

We are given $n$ identical cubes, each of size $1\times 1\times 1$. We arrange all of these $n$ cubes to produce one or more congruent rectangular solids, and let $B(n)$ be the number of ways to do this. For example, if $n=12$, then one arrangement is twelve $1\times1\times1$ cubes, another is one $3\times 2\times2$ solid, another is three $2\times 2\times1$ solids, another is three $4\times1\times1$ solids, etc. We do not consider, say, $2\times2\times1$ and $1\times2\times2$ to be different; these solids are congruent. You may wish to verify, for example, that $B(12) =11$. Find, with proof, the integer $m$ such that $10^m<B(2015^{100})<10^{m+1}$.
