In a unit circle where $O$ is your circumcenter, let $A$ and $B$ points in the circle with $\angle BOA = 90$. In the arc $AB$(minor arc) we have the points $P$ and $Q$ such that $PQ$ is parallel to $AB$. Let $X$ and $Y$ be the points of intersections of the line $PQ$ with $OA$ and $OB$ respectively. Find the value of $PX^2 + PY^2$

Let $AD$ be the perpendicular to the hypotenuse $BC$ of the right triangle $ABC$. Let $DE$ be the height of the triangle $ADB$ and $DZ$ be the height of the triangle $ADC$. On the line $AB$ is chosen the point $N$ so that $CN$ is parallel to $EZ$. Let $A'$ be symmetrical of $A$ to $EZ$ and $I, K$ projections of $A'$ on $AB$, respectively, on $AC$. Prove that $<$ $NA'T$ $=$ $<$ $ADT$, where $T$ is the point of intersection of $IK$ and $DE$.

Show that any two intervals $A, B\subseteq \mathbb R$ of positive lengths can be countably disected into each other, that is, they can be written as countable unions $A=A_1\cup A_2\cup\ldots\,$ and $B=B_1\cup B_2\cup\ldots\,$ of pairwise disjoint sets, where $A_i$ and $B_i$ are congruent for every $i\in \mathbb N$ [Gy.

For positive integers $i$ and $j$, define $d(i,j)$ as follows: $d(1,j) = 1, d(i,1) = 1$ for all $i$ and $j$, and for $i, j > 1$, $d(i,j) = d(i-1,j) + d(i,j-1) + d(i-1,j-1)$. Compute the remainder when $d(3,2016)$ is divided by $1000$.

Circles $C_1$, $C_2$, and $C_3$ are inside a rectangle $WXYZ$ such that $C_1$ is tangent to $\overline{WX}$, $\overline{ZW}$, and $\overline{YZ}$; $C_2$ is tangent to $\overline{WX}$ and $\overline{XY}$; and $C_3$ is tangent to $\overline{YZ}$, $C_1$, and $C_2$. If the radii of $C_1$, $C_2$, and $C_3$ are $1$, $\tfrac 12$, and $\tfrac 23$ respectively, compute the area of the triangle formed by the centers of $C_1$, $C_2$, and $C_3$.

Show that there exists a positive constant $C$ such that, for all positive reals $a$ and $b$ with $a + b$ being an integer, we have

The set $\{1,2,\dots\>,n\}$ is called $P$. The function $f: P \to \{1,2,\dots\>,m\}$ satisfies \[f(A\cap B)=\min (f(A), f(B)).\] What is the relationship between the number of possible functions $f$ with the sum $\displaystyle \sum_{j=1}^m j^n$?
There is a nice and easy solution to this. Too bad I did not think of it...

Tanya and Serezha take turns putting chips in empty squares of a chessboard. Tanya starts with a chip in an arbitrary square. At every next move, Serezha must put a chip in the column where Tanya put her last chip, while Tanya must put a chip in the row where Serezha put his last chip. The player who cannot make a move loses. Which of the players has a winning strategy?
