2001 Grosman Memorial Mathematical Olympiad, 3

We are given $2001$ lines in the plane, no two of which are parallel and no three of which are concurrent. These lines partition the plane into regions (not necessarily finite) bounded by segments of these lines. These segments are called [i]sides[/i], and the collection of the regions is called a [i]map[/i]. Intersection points of the lines are called [i]vertices[/i]. Two regions are [i]neighbors [/i]if they share a side, and two vertices are neighbors if they lie on the same side. A [i]legal coloring[/i] of the regions (resp. vertices) is a coloring in which each region (resp. vertex) receives one color, such that any two neighboring regions (vertices) have different colors. (a) What is the minimum number of colors required for a legal coloring of the regions? (b) What is the minimum number of colors required for a legal coloring of the vertices?

In a circumference of a circle, $ 10000$ points are marked, and they are numbered from $ 1$ to $ 10000$ in a clockwise manner. $ 5000$ segments are drawn in such a way so that the following conditions are met: 1. Each segment joins two marked points. 2. Each marked point belongs to one and only one segment. 3. Each segment intersects exactly one of the remaining segments. 4. A number is assigned to each segment that is the product of the number assigned to each end point of the segment. Let $ S$ be the sum of the products assigned to all the segments. Show that $ S$ is a multiple of $ 4$.

Let $ABCD$ be a quadrilateral and $P$ a point in the plane of the quadrilateral. Let $M,N$ be on the sides $AC,BD$ respectively such that $PM \parallel BC, PN \parallel AD$. $AC$ meets $BD$ at $E$. Prove that the orthocenter of triangles $EBC, EAD, EMN$ are collinear if and only if $P$ is on the line $AB$. Đỗ Thanh Sơn PS. Instead of the word [b]collinear[/b], it was written [b]concurrent[/b], probably a typo.

Two players in turns color the sides of an $n$-gon. The first player colors any side that has $0$ or $2$ common vertices with already colored sides. The second player colors any side that has exactly $1$ common vertex with already colored sides. The player who cannot move, loses. For which $n$ the second player has a winning strategy?

2012 ITAMO, 3

Let $n$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$. There are $n$ people in one line, each of which is either a [i]scoundrel[/i] (who always lie) or a [i]knight[/i] (who always tells the truth). Every person, except the first, indicates a person in front of him/her and says "This person is a scoundrel" or "This person is a knight." Knowing that there are strictly more scoundrel than knights, seeing the statements show that it is possible to determine each person whether he/she is a scoundrel or a knight.
