2015 Indonesia MO Shortlist, G4

Given an isosceles triangle $ABC$ with $AB = AC$, suppose $D$ is the midpoint of the $AC$. The circumcircle of the $DBC$ triangle intersects the altitude from $A$ at point $E$ inside the triangle $ABC$, and the circumcircle of the triangle $AEB$ cuts the side $BD$ at point $F$. If $CF$ cuts $AE$ at point $G$, prove that $AE = EG$.

In the acute triangle $ ABC $, $ L $, $ H $ and $ M $ are the intersection points of bisectors, altitudes and medians, respectively, and $ O $ is the center of the circumscribed circle. Denote by $ X $, $ Y $ and $ Z $ the intersection points of $ AL $, $ BL $ and $ CL $ with a circle, respectively. Let $ N $ be a point on the line $ OL $ such that the lines $ MN $ and $ HL $ are parallel. Prove that $ N $ is the intersection point of the medians of $ XYZ $.

In the game of Flow, a path is drawn through a $3\times3$ grid of squares obeying the following rules: i A path is continuous with no breaks (it can be drawn without lifting a pencil). ii A path that spans multiple squares can only be drawn between colored squares that share a side. iii A path cannot go through a square more than once. Compute the number of ways to color a positive number of squares on the grid such that a valid path can be drawn. An example of one such coloring and a valid path is shown below.

$100$ numbers $1$, $1/2$, $1/3$, $...$, $1/100$ are written on the blackboard. One may delete two arbitrary numbers $a$ and $b$ among them and replace them by the number $a + b + ab$. After $99$ such operations only one number is left. What is this final number? (D. Fomin, Leningrad)

If ri are integers such that $0 \le r_i < 31$ and $r_i$ satis fies the polynomial $x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x \equiv 30$ (mod $31$), find $$\sum^4_{i=1}(r^2_i + 1)^{-1} \,\,\,\, (mod \,\,\,\, 31)$$ where $x^{-1}$ is the modulo inverse of $x$, that is, it is the unique integer $y$ such that $0 < y < 31$ and $xy -1$ is divisible by $31$.

1998 Polish MO Finals, 3

$S$ is a board containing all unit squares in the $xy$ plane whose vertices have integer coordinates and which lie entirely inside the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 1998^2$. In each square of $S$ is written $+1$. An allowed move is to change the sign of every square in $S$ in a given row, column or diagonal. Can we end up with exactly one $-1$ and $+1$ on the rest squares by a sequence of allowed moves?

Does there exist positive integer $n$ such that sum of all digits of number $n(4n+1)$ is equal to $2017$

2021 Mexico National Olympiad, 5

If $n=\overline{a_1a_2\cdots a_{k-1}a_k}$, be $s(n)$ such that . If $k$ is even, $s(n)=\overline{a_1a_2}+\overline{a_3a_4}\cdots+\overline{a_{k-1}a_k}$ . If $k$ is odd, $s(n)=a_1+\overline{a_2a_3}\cdots+\overline{a_{k-1}a_k}$ For example $s(123)=1+23=24$ and $s(2021)=20+21=41$ Be $n$ is $digital$ if $s(n)$ is a divisor of $n$. Prove that among any 198 consecutive positive integers, all of them less than 2000021 there is one of them that is $digital$.

Chandler the Octopus is at a tentacle party! At this party, there is $1$ creature with $2$ tentacles, $2$ creatures with $3$ tentacles, $3$ creatures with $4$ tentacles, all the way up to $14$ creatures with $15$ tentacles. Each tentacle is distinguishable from all other tentacles. For some $2\le m < n \le 15$, a creature with m tentacles “meets” a creature with n tentacles; “meeting” another creature consists of shaking exactly 1 tentacle with each other. Find the number of ways there are to pick distinct $m < n$ between $2$ and $15$, inclusive, and then to pick a creature with $m$ tentacles to “meet” a selected creature with $n$ tentacles.
