A triangle is [i]nondegenerate[/i] if its three vertices are not collinear. A particular nondegenerate triangle $\triangle JHU$ has side lengths $x,$ $y,$ and $z,$ and its angle measures, in degrees, are all integers. If there exists a nondegenerate triangle with side lengths $x^2,$ $y^2,$ and $z^2,$ then what is the largest possible angle measure in the original triangle $\triangle JHU,$ in degrees?

Let $ABCD$ be a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle $\Omega.$ Let the tangent to $\Omega$ at $D$ meet rays $BA$ and $BC$ at $E$ and $F,$ respectively. A point $T$ is chosen inside $\triangle ABC$ so that $\overline{TE}\parallel\overline{CD}$ and $\overline{TF}\parallel\overline{AD}.$ Let $K\ne D$ be a point on segment $DF$ satisfying $TD=TK.$ Prove that lines $AC,DT,$ and $BK$ are concurrent.

In an $8$-square board -like the one in the figure- there is initially one checker in each square.
$ \begin{tabular}{ | l | c | c |c | c| c | c | c | r| }
\hline
& & & & & & & \\ \hline
\end{tabular}
$
A move consists of choosing two tokens and moving one of them one square to the right and the other one one square to the left. If after $4$ moves the $8$ checkers are distributed in only $2$ boxes, determine what those boxes can be and how many checkers are in each one.

There are $n$ MOPpers $p_1,...,p_n$ designing a carpool system to attend their morning class. Each $p_i$'s car fits $\chi (p_i)$ people ($\chi : \{p_1,...,p_n\} \to \{1,2,...,n\}$). A $c$-fair carpool system is an assignment of one or more drivers on each of several days, such that each MOPper drives $c$ times, and all cars are full on each day. (More precisely, it is a sequence of sets $(S_1, ...,S_m)$ such that $|\{k: p_i\in S_k\}|=c$ and $\sum_{x\in S_j} \chi(x) = n$ for all $i,j$. )
Suppose it turns out that a $2$-fair carpool system is possible but not a $1$-fair carpool system. Must $n$ be even?

The board has a natural number greater than $1$. At each step, Igor writes the number $n +\frac{n}{p}$ instead of the number $n$ on the board , where $p$ is some prime divisor of $n$.
Prove that if Igor continues to rewrite the number infinite times, then he will choose infinitely times the number $3$ as a prime divisor of $p$.

Let $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ be two circles with centers $O_1$ and $O_2$. The two circles intersect at $A$ and $B$. $\ell$ is the circles' common external tangent that is closer to $B$, and it meets $\omega_1$ at $T_1$ and $\omega_2$ at $T_2$. Let $C$ be the point on line $AB$ not equal to $A$ that is the same distance from $\ell$ as $A$ is. Given that $O_1O_2=15$, $AT_1=5$ and $AT_2=12$, find $AC^2+{T_1T_2}^2$.
