Let $ ABC$ be a given triangle with the incenter $ I$, and denote by $ X$, $ Y$, $ Z$ the intersections of the lines $ AI$, $ BI$, $ CI$ with the sides $ BC$, $ CA$, and $ AB$, respectively. Consider $ \mathcal{K}_{a}$ the circle tangent simultanously to the sidelines $ AB$, $ AC$, and internally to the circumcircle $ \mathcal{C}(O)$ of $ ABC$, and let $ A^{\prime}$ be the tangency point of $ \mathcal{K}_{a}$ with $ \mathcal{C}$. Similarly, define $ B^{\prime}$, and $ C^{\prime}$.
Prove that the circumcircles of triangles $ AXA^{\prime}$, $ BYB^{\prime}$, and $ CZC^{\prime}$ all pass through two distinct points.

A mother and her son are playing. At first, the son divides a ${300}\mathrm{\;g}$ wheel of cheese into 4 slices. Then the mother divides ${280}\mathrm{\;g}$ of butter between two plates. At last, the son puts the cheese slices on those plates. The son wins if on each plate the amount of cheese is not less than the amount of butter (otherwise the mother wins). Who of them can win irrespective of the opponent's actions?

Two circles of radius 1 are to be constructed as follows. The center of circle $ A$ is chosen uniformly and at random from the line segment joining $ (0,0)$ and $ (2,0)$. The center of circle $ B$ is chosen uniformly and at random, and independently of the first choice, from the line segment joining $ (0,1)$ to $ (2,1)$. What is the probability that circles $ A$ and $ B$ intersect?

4. There are 5 tables in a classroom. Each table has 4 chairs with a child sitting on it. All the children get up and randomly sit in a seat. Two people that sat at the same table before are not allowed to sit at the same table again. Assuming tables and chairs are distinguishable, if the number of different classroom arrangements can be written as $2^a3^b5^c$, what is $a+b+c$?

In the diagram below, rectangle $ABCD$ has $AB = 5$ and $AD = 12$. Also, $E$ is a point in the same plane outside $ABCD$ such that the perpendicular distances from $E$ to the lines $AB$ and $AD$ are $12$ and $1$, respectively, and $\triangle ABE$ is acute. There exists a line passing through $E$ which splits $ABCD$ into two figures of equal area. Suppose that this line intersects $\overline{AB}$ at a point $F$ and $\overline{CD}$ at a point $G$. Find $FG^2$.

Two circles, $C$ and $K$, are secant at $A$ and $B$. Let $P$ be a point on the arc $AB$ of $C$. Lines $PA$ and $PB$ intersect $K$ again at $R$ and $S$ respectively. Let $P'$ be another point at same arc as $P$, so that lines $P'A$ and $P'B$ again intersect $K$ at $R'$ and $S'$, respectively. Prove that the arcs $RS$ and $R'S'$ have equal measures.
