[b]p1.[/b] What is the maximum number of points of intersection between a square and a triangle, assuming that no side of the triangle is parallel to any side of the square? [b]p2.[/b] Two angles of an isosceles triangle measure $80^o$ and $x^o$. What is the sum of all the possible values of $x$? [b]p3.[/b] Let $p$ and $q$ be prime numbers such that $p + q$ and p + $7q$ are both perfect squares. Find the value of $pq$. [b]p4.[/b] Anna, Betty, Carly, and Danielle are four pit bulls, each of which is either wearing or not wearing lipstick. The following three facts are true: (1) Anna is wearing lipstick if Betty is wearing lipstick. (2) Betty is wearing lipstick only if Carly is also wearing lipstick. (3) Carly is wearing lipstick if and only if Danielle is wearing lipstick The following five statements are each assigned a certain number of points: (a) Danielle is wearing lipstick if and only if Carly is wearing lipstick. (This statement is assigned $1$ point.) (b) If Anna is wearing lipstick, then Betty is wearing lipstick. (This statement is assigned $6$ points.) (c) If Betty is wearing lipstick, then both Anna and Danielle must be wearing lipstick. (This statement is assigned $10$ points.) (d) If Danielle is wearing lipstick, then Anna is wearing lipstick. (This statement is assigned $12$ points.) (e) If Betty is wearing lipstick, then Danielle is wearing lipstick. (This statement is assigned $14$ points.) What is the sum of the points assigned to the statements that must be true? (For example, if only statements (a) and (d) are true, then the answer would be $1 + 12 = 13$.)

Let $A$ be a finite set of pairs of real numbers such that for any pairs $(a,b)$ in $A$ we have $a>0$. Let $X_0=(x_0, y_0)$ be a pair of real numbers(not necessarily from $A$). We define $X_{j+1}=(x_{j+1}, y_{j+1})$ for all $j\ge 0$ as follows: for all $(a,b)\in A$, if $ax_j+by_j>0$ we let $X_{j+1}=X_j$; otherwise we choose a pair $(a,b)$ in $A$ for which $ax_j+by_j\le 0$ and set $X_{j+1}=(x_j+a, y_j+b)$. Show that there exists an integer $N\ge 0$ such that $X_{N+1}=X_N$.

The integer numbers from $1$ to $2002$ are written in a blackboard in increasing order $1,2,\ldots, 2001,2002$. After that, somebody erases the numbers in the $ (3k+1)-th$ places i.e. $(1,4,7,\dots)$. After that, the same person erases the numbers in the $(3k+1)-th$ positions of the new list (in this case, $2,5,9,\ldots$). This process is repeated until one number remains. What is this number?

Let $G$ be a planar graph all of whose vertices are of degree $4$. Vasya and Petya walk along its edges.

A tetrahedron is called a [i]MEMO-tetrahedron[/i] if all six sidelengths are different positive integers where one of them is $ 2$ and one of them is $ 3$. Let $ l(T)$ be the sum of the sidelengths of the tetrahedron $ T$. (a) Find all positive integers $ n$ so that there exists a MEMO-Tetrahedron $ T$ with $ l(T)\equal{}n$. (b) How many pairwise non-congruent MEMO-tetrahedrons $ T$ satisfying $ l(T)\equal{}2007$ exist? Two tetrahedrons are said to be non-congruent if one cannot be obtained from the other by a composition of reflections in planes, translations and rotations. (It is not neccessary to prove that the tetrahedrons are not degenerate, i.e. that they have a positive volume).
