Let $ ABC$ be an acute angled triangle whose circumcenter is $ O$. The three diameters of the circumcircle that pass through $ A$, $ B$, and $ C$, meet the opposite sides $ BC$, $ CA$, and $ AB$ at the points $ A_1$, $ B_1$ and $ C_1$, respectively. The circumradius of $ ABC$ is of length $ 2P$, where $ P$ is a prime number. The lengths of $ OA_1$, $ OB_1$, $ OC_1$ are integers. What are the lengths of the sides of the triangle?

For an integer $n \geq 5,$ two players play the following game on a regular $n$-gon. Initially, three consecutive vertices are chosen, and one counter is placed on each. A move consists of one player sliding one counter along any number of edges to another vertex of the $n$-gon without jumping over another counter. A move is legal if the area of the triangle formed by the counters is strictly greater after the move than before. The players take turns to make legal moves, and if a player cannot make a legal move, that player loses. For which values of $n$ does the player making the first move have a winning strategy?

Paul fills in a $7\times7$ grid with the numbers $1$ through $49$ in a random arrangement. He then erases his work and does the same thing again, to obtain two different random arrangements of the numbers in the grid. What is the expected number of pairs of numbers that occur in either the same row as each other or the same column as each other in both of the two arrangements?

For $a>2$, let $f(t)=\frac{\sin ^ 2 at+t^2}{at\sin at},\ g(t)=\frac{\sin ^ 2 at-t^2}{at\sin at}\ \left(0<|t|<\frac{\pi}{2a}\right)$ and
let $C: x^2-y^2=\frac{4}{a^2}\ \left(x\geq \frac{2}{a}\right).$ Answer the questions as follows.
(1) Show that the point $(f(t),\ g(t))$ lies on the curve $C$.
(2) Find the normal line of the curve $C$ at the point $\left(\lim_{t\rightarrow 0} f(t),\ \lim_{t\rightarrow 0} g(t)\right).$
(3) Let $V(a)$ be the volume of the solid generated by a rotation of the part enclosed by the curve $C$, the nornal line found in (2) and the $x$-axis. Express $V(a)$ in terms of $a$, then find $\lim_{a\to\infty} V(a)$.
