In space, there are \( 13 \) points, no four of which lie in the same plane. Three of the points are colored blue, and the triangle with these points as vertices will be called a [i]blue triangle[/i]. The remaining \( 10 \) points are colored red. We say that a triangle with three red vertices is [i]attached[/i] to the blue triangle if the boundary of the red triangle intersects the blue triangle (either in its interior or on its boundary) at exactly one point. Is it possible for the number of attached triangles to be \( 33 \)?

Kylie is trying to count to $202250$. However, this would take way too long, so she decides to only write down positive integers from $1$ to $202250$, inclusive, that are divisible by $125$. How many times does she write down the digit $2$?

The four faces of a right triangular pyramid are equilateral triangles whose edge measures $3$ dm. Suppose the pyramid is hollow, resting on one of its faces at a horizontal surface (see attached figure) and that there is $2$ dm$^3$ of water inside. Determine the height that the liquid reaches inside the pyramid. [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/0/7/6cd6e1077620371e56ed57d19fd3d05a58904e.png[/img]

Acute triangle $ABC$ with $AB>BC$ is inscribed in circle $\Omega$. Points $D$ and $E$, that lie on $(BC)$ and $(AB)$ are the feet of altitudes from $A$ and $C$ in triangle $ABC$, and $M$ is the midpoint of the segment $DE$. Half-line $(AM$ intersects the circle $\Omega$ for the second time in $N$. Show that the circumcenter of triangle $MDN$ lies on the line $BC$.

Let $A_1A_2A_3A_4A_5$ be a regular pentagon inscribed in a circle with area $\tfrac{5+\sqrt{5}}{10}\pi$. For each $i=1,2,\dots,5$, points $B_i$ and $C_i$ lie on ray $\overrightarrow{A_iA_{i+1}}$ such that \[B_iA_i \cdot B_iA_{i+1} = B_iA_{i+2} \quad \text{and} \quad C_iA_i \cdot C_iA_{i+1} = C_iA_{i+2}^2\]where indices are taken modulo 5. The value of $\tfrac{[B_1B_2B_3B_4B_5]}{[C_1C_2C_3C_4C_5]}$ (where $[\mathcal P]$ denotes the area of polygon $\mathcal P$) can be expressed as $\tfrac{a+b\sqrt{5}}{c}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers, and $c > 0$ is as small as possible. Find $100a+10b+c$. [i]Proposed by Robin Park[/i]

[b]4.[/b] Let $f(x)$ be a real- or complex-value integrable function on $(0,1)$ with $\mid f(x) \mid \leq 1 $. Set $ c_k = \int_0^1 f(x) e^{-2 \pi i k x} dx $ and construct the following matrices of order $n$: $ T= (t_{pq})_{p,q=0}^{n-1}, T^{*}= (t_{pq}^{*})_{p,q =0}^{n-1} $ where $t_{pq}= c_{q-p}, t^{*}= \overline {c_{p-q}}$ . Further, consider the following hyper-matrix of order $m$: $ S= \begin{bmatrix} E & T & T^2 & \dots & T^{m-2} & T^{m-1} \\ T^{*} & E & T & \dots & T^{m-3} & T^{m-2} \\ T^{*2} & T^{*} & E & \dots & T^{m-3} & T^{m-2} \\ \dots & \dots & \dots & \dots & \dots & \dots \\ T^{*m-1} & T^{*m-2} & T^{*m-3} & \dots & T^{*} & E \end{bmatrix} $ ($S$ is a matrix of order $mn$ in the ordinary sense; E denotes the unit matrix of order $n$). Show that for any pair $(m , n) $ of positive integers, $S$ has only non-negative real eigenvalues. [b](R. 19)[/b]

We will say that a natural number is [i]acceptable[/i] if it has at most $9$ distinct prime divisors. There is a stack of $100!=1\times2\times\cdots\times100$ stones. A [i]legal move[/i] consists in removing $k$ stones from the stack, where $k$ is an acceptable number. Two players, Lucas and Nicolas, take turns making legal moves; Lucas starts the game. The one who removes the last stone wins. Determine which of the players has a winning strategy and describe this strategy.
