nic$\kappa$y is drawing kappas in the cells of a square grid. However, he does not want to draw kappas in three consecutive cells (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally). Find all real numbers $d>0$ such that for every positive integer $n,$ nic$\kappa$y can label at least $dn^2$ cells of an $n\times n$ square. [i]Proposed by Mihir Singhal and Michael Kural[/i]

The diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ of a cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ meet at $O$. The circumcircles of triangles $AOB$ and $COD$ intersect again at $K$. Point $L$ is such that the triangles $BLC$ and $AKD$ are similar and equally oriented. Prove that if the quadrilateral $BLCK$ is convex, then it is tangent [has an incircle].

A cylindrical container has height $6 cm$ and radius $4 cm$. It rests on a circular hoop, also of radius $4 cm$, fixed in a horizontal plane with its axis vertical and with each circular rim of the cylinder touching the hoop at two points. The cylinder is now moved so that each of its circular rims still touches the hoop in two points. Find with proof the locus of one of the cylinder’s vertical ends.

Joy has a square board of size $n \times n$. At every step, he colours a cell of the board. He cannot colour any cell more than once. He also counts points while colouring the cells. At first, he has $0$ points. Every step, after colouring a cell $c$, he takes the largest possible set $S$ that creates a "$+$" sign where all cells are coloured and $c$ lies in the centre. Then, he gets the size of set $S$ as points. After colouring the whole $n \times n$ board, what is the maximum possible amount of points he can get?

We want to partition the integers $1, 2, 3, . . . , 100$ into several groups such that within each group either any two numbers are coprime or any two are not coprime. At least how many groups are needed for such a partition? [i]We call two integers coprime if they have no common divisor greater than $1$.[/i]
