Determine the number of ways of selecting two distinct unit cubes from a $ 3\times3\times1$ block (the order is irrelevant) with the property that the line joining the centers of the two cubes makes a $ 45^\circ$ angle with the horizontal plane.

A positive integer $n$ is called a $\textit{supersquare}$ if there exists a positive integer $m$, such that $10 \nmid m$ and the decimal representation of $n=m^2$ consists only of digits among $\{0, 4, 9\}$. Are there infinitely many $\textit{supersquares}$?

An $7\times 7$ array is divided in $49$ unit squares. Find all integers $n \in N^*$ for which $n$ checkers can be placed on the unit squares so that each row and each line have an even number of checkers.
($0$ is an even number, so there may exist empty rows or columns. A square may be occupied by at most $1$ checker).

Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a finite set of at least two points in the plane. Assume that no three points of $\mathcal S$ are collinear. A [i]windmill[/i] is a process that starts with a line $\ell$ going through a single point $P \in \mathcal S$. The line rotates clockwise about the [i]pivot[/i] $P$ until the first time that the line meets some other point belonging to $\mathcal S$. This point, $Q$, takes over as the new pivot, and the line now rotates clockwise about $Q$, until it next meets a point of $\mathcal S$. This process continues indefinitely.
Show that we can choose a point $P$ in $\mathcal S$ and a line $\ell$ going through $P$ such that the resulting windmill uses each point of $\mathcal S$ as a pivot infinitely many times.

For $n \geq 3$, a [i]special n-triangle[/i] is a triangle with $n$ distinct numbers on each side such that the sum of the numbers on a side is the same for all sides. For instance, because $41 + 23 + 43 = 43 + 17 + 47 = 47 + 19 + 41$, the following is a special $3$-triangle:
$$41$$
$$23\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }19$$
$$43\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }17\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }\text{ }47$$
Note that a special $n$-triangle contains $3(n - 1)$ numbers.
An infinite set $A$ of positive integers is a [i]special set[/i] if, for each $n \geq 3$, the smallest $3(n - 1)$ numbers of $A$ can be used to form a special $n$-triangle.
Show that the set of positive integers that are not multiples of $2023$ is a special set.

The Euclidean Algorithm on inputs $a$ and $b$ is a way to find the greatest common divisor $\gcd(a,b)$. Suppose WLOG that $a>b$. On each step of the Euclidan Algorithm, we solve the equation $a=bq+r$ for integers $q,r$ such that $0\leq r<b$, and repeat on $b$ and $r$. Thus $\gcd(a,b)=\gcd(b,r)$, and we repeat. If $r=0$, we are done. For example, $\gcd(100,15)=\gcd(15,10)=\gcd(10,5)=5$, because $100=15\cdot6+10$, $15=10\cdot1+5$, and $10=5\cdot2+0$. Thus, the Euclidean Algorithm here takes $3$ steps. What is the largest number of steps that the Euclidean Algorithm can take on some integer inputs $a,b$ where $0<a,b<10^{2016}$?

There are three flies of negligible size that start at the same position on a circular track with circumference 1000 meters. They fly clockwise at speeds of 2, 6, and $k$ meters per second, respectively, where $k$ is some positive integer with $7\le k \le 2013$. Suppose that at some point in time, all three flies meet at a location different from their starting point. How many possible values of $k$ are there?
