While there do not exist pairwise distinct real numbers $a,b,c$ satisfying $a^2+b^2+c^2 = ab+bc+ca$, there do exist complex numbers with that property. Let $a,b,c$ be complex numbers such that $a^2+b^2+c^2 = ab+bc+ca$ and $|a+b+c| = 21$. Given that $|a-b| = 2\sqrt{3}$, $|a| = 3\sqrt{3}$, compute $|b|^2+|c|^2$.
[hide="Clarifications"]
[list]
[*] The problem should read $|a+b+c| = 21$. An earlier version of the test read $|a+b+c| = 7$; that value is incorrect.
[*] $|b|^2+|c|^2$ should be a positive integer, not a fraction; an earlier version of the test read ``... for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$. Find $m+n$.''[/list][/hide]

Arutyun and Amayak show another effective trick. A spectator writes down on a board a sequence of $N$ (decimal) digits. Amayak closes two adjacent digits by a black disc. Then Arutyun comes and says both closed digits (and their order). For which minimal $N$ they may show such a trick?

Let $ \mathcal{F}$ be a family of hexagons $ H$ satisfying the following properties:
i) $ H$ has parallel opposite sides.
ii) Any 3 vertices of $ H$ can be covered with a strip of width 1.
Determine the least $ \ell\in\mathbb{R}$ such that every hexagon belonging to $ \mathcal{F}$ can be covered with a strip of width $ \ell$.
Note: A strip is the area bounded by two parallel lines separated by a distance $ \ell$. The lines belong to the strip, too.

$a_n$ sequence is a arithmetic sequence with all terms be positive integers. (for $a_n$ non-constant sequence) Let $p_n$ is greatest prime divisor of $a_n$. Prove that
$$(\frac{a_n}{p_n})$$
sequence is infinity.

If we find a $M>0$ constant such that $x_n \leq M$ for all $n \in {\mathbb N}$'s, $(x_n)$ sequence is non-infinite, but we can't find $M$, $(x_n)$ sequence is infinity [/hide]

In Shvambrania there are $N$ towns, every two of which are connected by a road. These roads do not intersect. If necessary, some of them pass over or under others via bridges. An evil magician establishes one-way rules along the roads in such a way that if someone goes out of a certain town he is unable to come back. Prove that
(a) It is possible to establish such rules.
(b) There exists a town from which it is possible to reach any other town, and there exists a town from which it is not possible to go out.
(c) There is one and only one route passing through all towns.
(d) The magician can realise his intention in $N!$ ways.

Jean made a piece of stained glass art in the shape of two mountains, as shown in the figure below. One mountain peak is $8$ feet high and the other peak is $12$ feet high. Each peak forms a $90^\circ$ angle, and the straight sides of the mountains form $45^\circ$ with the ground. The artwork has an area of $183$ square feet. The sides of the mountains meet at an intersection point near the center of the artwork, $h$ feet above the ground. What is the value of $h$?

In the coordinate plane, define $M = \{(a, b),a,b \in Z\}$. A transformation $S$, which is defined on $M$, sends $(a,b)$
to $(a + b, b)$. Transformation $T$, also defined on $M$, sends $(a, b)$ to $(-b, a)$. Prove that for all $(a, b) \in M$, we
can use $S,T$ denitely to map it to $(g,0)$.

All the positive divisors of a positive integer $n$ are stored into an increasing array. Mary is writing a programme which decides for an arbitrarily chosen divisor $d > 1$ whether it is a prime. Let $n$ have $k$ divisors not greater than $d$. Mary claims that it suffices to check divisibility of $d$ by the first $\left\lceil\frac{k}{2}\right\rceil$ divisors of $n$: $d$ is prime if and only if none of them but $1$ divides $d$.
Is Mary right?

Let $ABC$ be a triangle. For a point $P$ in its interior, we draw the threee lines through $P$ parallel to the sides of the triangle. This partitions $ABC$ in three triangles and three quadrilaterals.
Let $V_A$ be the area of the quadrilateral which has $A$ as one vertex. Let $D_A$ be the area of the triangle which has a part of $BC$ as one of its sides. Define $V_B, D_B$ and $V_C, D_C$ similarly.
Determine all possible values of $\frac{D_A}{V_A}+\frac{D_B}{V_B}+\frac{D_C}{V_C}$, as $P$ varies in the interior of the triangle.
