Let $\triangle ABC$ be a triangle such that $AB=6, BC=8,$ and $AC=10$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. Circle $\omega$ passes through $A$ and is tangent to $BC$ at $M$. Suppose $\omega$ intersects segments $AB$ and $AC$ again at points $X$ and $Y$, respectively. If the area of $AXY$ can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$ where $p, q$ are relatively prime integers, compute $p+q$.

The paper is written on consecutive integers $1$ through $n$. Then are deleted all numbers ending in $4$ and $9$ and the rest alternating between $-$ and $+$. Finally, an opening parenthesis is added after each character and at the end of the expression the corresponding number of parentheses: $1 - (2 + 3 - (5 + 6 - (7 + 8 - (10 +...))))$. Find all numbers $n$ such that the value of this expression is $13$.

A regular polyhedron is a polyhedron that is convex and all of its faces are regular polygons. We call a regular polhedron a "[i]Choombam[/i]" iff none of its faces are triangles. a) prove that each choombam can be inscribed in a sphere. b) Prove that faces of each choombam are polygons of at most 3 kinds. (i.e. there is a set $\{m,n,q\}$ that each face of a choombam is $n$-gon or $m$-gon or $q$-gon.) c) Prove that there is only one choombam that its faces are pentagon and hexagon.

Prove that the set $\{f(0),f(1),...,f(p-1)\}$ is a complete residue system modulo $p$ if and only if polynomials $f(x), (f(x))^2,...,(f(x))^{p-2}$ are $0$-remainder and the polynomial $(f(x))^{p-1}$ is $1$-remainder.
