Let $A$, $B$, and $C$ be three points such that $B$ is the midpoint of segment $AC$ and let $P$ be a point such that $<PBC=60$. Equilateral triangle $PCQ$ is constructed such that $B$ and $Q$ are on different half=planes with respect to $PC$, and the equilateral triangle $APR$ is constructed in such a way that $B$ and $R$ are in the same half-plane with respect to $AP$. Let $X$ be the point of intersection of the lines $BQ$ and $PC$, and let $Y$ be the point of intersection of the lines $BR$ and $AP$. Prove that $XY$ and $AC$ are parallel.

Mr. DoBa has a bag of markers. There are 2 blue, 3 red, 4 green, and 5 yellow markers. Mr. DoBa randomly takes out two markers from the bag. The probability that these two markers are different colors can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$. Compute $m+n$. [i]Proposed by Raina Yang[/i]

Three lines passing through point $ O$ form equal angles by pairs. Points $ A_1$, $ A_2$ on the first line and $ B_1$, $ B_2$ on the second line are such that the common point $ C_1$ of $ A_1B_1$ and $ A_2B_2$ lies on the third line.

A midpoint plotter is an instrument which draws the exact mid point of two point previously drawn. Starting off two points $1$ unit of distance apart and using only the midpoint plotter, you have to get two point which are strictly at a distance between $\frac{1}{2017}$ and $\frac{1}{2016}$ units, drawing the minimum amount of points. ¿Which is the minimum number of times you will need to use the midpoint plotter and what strategy should you follow to achieve it?

We are given a certain number of identical sets of weights; each set consists of four different weights expressed by natural numbers (of weight units). Using these weights we are able to weigh out every integer mass up to $1985$ (inclusive). How many ways are there to compose such a set of weight sets given that the joint mass of all weights is the least possible?

For any triple $(a, b, c)$ of positive integers, not all equal, We are given sufficiently many rectangular blocks of size $a \times b \times c$. We use these blocks to fill up a cubic box of edge $10$. (a) Assume we have used at least $100$ blocks. Show that there are two blocks, one of which is a translate of the other. (b) Find a number smaller than $100$ (the smaller, the better) for which the above statement still holds.

The figure shows a triangular pool table with sides $a$, $b$ and $c$. Located at point $S$ on $c$ a sphere - which can be assumed as a point. After kick-off, as indicated in the figure, it runs through as a result of reflections to $a, b, a, b$ and $c$ (in $S$) always the same track. The reflection occurs according to law of reflection. Characterize entilrely all triangles $ABC$, which allow such an orbit, and determine the locus of $S$.
