Three distinct points $A$, $B$, and $C$ are fixed on a line in this order. Let $\Gamma$ be a circle passing through $A$ and $C$ whose center does not lie on the line $AC$. Denote by $P$ the intersection of the tangents to $\Gamma$ at $A$ and $C$. Suppose $\Gamma$ meets the segment $PB$ at $Q$. Prove that the intersection of the bisector of $\angle AQC$ and the line $AC$ does not depend on the choice of $\Gamma$.

A digital display shows the current date as an $8$-digit integer consisting of a $4$-digit year, followed by a $2$-digit month, followed by a $2$-digit date within the month. For example, Arbor Day this year is displayed as 20230428. For how many dates in $2023$ will each digit appear an even number of times in the 8-digital display for that date? $\textbf{(A)}~5\qquad\textbf{(B)}~6\qquad\textbf{(C)}~7\qquad\textbf{(D)}~8\qquad\textbf{(E)}~9$

Let $\mathbb N$ be the set of positive integers. Find all functions $f: \mathbb N \to \mathbb N$ that satisfy the equation \[ f^{abc-a}(abc) + f^{abc-b}(abc) + f^{abc-c}(abc) = a + b + c \] for all $a,b,c \ge 2$. (Here $f^1(n) = f(n)$ and $f^k(n) = f(f^{k-1}(n))$ for every integer $k$ greater than $1$.)

From a point $O$ lying outside the circle $\omega$, two tangents are drawn touching $\omega$ at points $M$ and $N$. A point $K$ is chosen on the segment $MN$. Let points $P$ and $Q$ be the midpoints of segments $KM$ and $OM$ respectively. The circumcircle of triangle $MPQ$ intersects $\omega$ again at point $L$ ($L \neq M$). Prove that the line $LN$ passes through the centroid of triangle $KMO$.

Let $ ABCDE$ be an arbitrary convex pentagon. Suppose that $ BD\cap CE \equal{} A'$, $ CE\cap DA \equal{} B'$, $ DA\cap EB \equal{} C'$, $ EB\cap AC \equal{} D'$ and $ AC\cap BD \equal{} E'$. Suppose also that $ eABD'\cap eAC'E \equal{} A''$, $ eBCE'\cap eBD'A \equal{} B''$, $ eCDA'\cap eCE'B \equal{} C''$, $ eDEB'\cap eDA'C \equal{} D''$, $ eEAC'\cap eEB'D \equal{} E''$. Prove that $ AA'', BB'', CC'', DD'', EE''$ are concurrent. (Here $ l_1\cap l_2 \equal{} P$ means that $ P$ is the intersection of lines $ l_1$ and $ l_2$. Also $ eA_1A_2A_3\cap eB_1B_2B_3 \equal{} Q$ means that $ Q$ is the intersection of the circumcircles of $ \Delta A_1A_2A_3$ and $ \Delta B_1B_2B_3$.)
