Define the [i]inverse [/i] of triangle $ABC$ with respect to a point $O$ in the following way: construct the circumcircle of $ABC$ and construct lines $AO$, $BO$, and $CO$. Let $A'$ be the other intersection of $AO$ and the circumcircle (if $AO$ is tangent, then let $A' = A$). Similarly define $B'$ and $C'$. Then $A'B'C'$ is the inverse of $ABC$ with respect to $O$. Compute the area of the inverse of the triangle given in the plane by $A(-6, -21)$, $B(-23, 10)$, $C(16, 23)$ with respect to $O(1, 3)$.

Consider a $ n\times n $ square grid which is divided into $ n^2 $ unit squares(think of a chess-board). The set of all unit squares intersecting the main diagonal of the square or lying under it is called an $n$-staircase. Find the number of ways in which an $n$-stair case can be partitioned into several rectangles, with sides along the grid lines, having mutually distinct areas.

Russian TST 2019, P1

The shores of the Tvertsy River are two parallel straight lines. There are point-like villages on the shores in some order: 20 villages on the left shore and 15 villages on the right shore. We want to build a system of non-intersecting bridges, that is, segments connecting a couple of villages from different shores, so that from any village you can get to any other village only by bridges (you can't walk along the shore). In how many ways can such a bridge system be built?

Members of the State Duma formed factions in such a way that for any two fractions $A $ and $B$ (not necessarily different), $\overline{A \cup B}$ is also faction ($\overline{C}$ denotes the set of all members of the Duma, not including in $C$). Prove that for any two factions $A$ and $B$, $A \cup B$ is also a faction.

Fifteen stones are placed on a $4 \times 4$ board, one in each cell, the remaining cell being empty. Whenever two stones are on neighbouring cells (having a common side), one may jump over the other to the opposite neighbouring cell, provided this cell is empty. The stone jumped over is removed from the board. For which initial positions of the empty cell is it possible to end up with exactly one stone on the board?

For natural numbers $x_1,\ldots,x_k$, let $[x_k,\ldots,x_1]$ be defined recurrently as follows: $[x_2,x_1]=x_2^{x_1}$ and, for $k\ge3$, $[x_k,x_{k-1},\ldots,x_1]=x_k^{[x_{k-1},\ldots,x_1]}$. (a) Let $3\le a_1\le a_2\le\ldots\le a_n$be integers. For a permutation $\sigma$ of the set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, we set $P(\sigma)=[a_{\sigma(n)},a_{\sigma(n-1)},\ldots,a_{\sigma(1)}]$. Find the permutations $\sigma$ for which $P(\sigma)$ is minimal or maximal. (b) Find all integers $a,b,c,d$, greater than or equal to $2$, for which $[178,9]\le[a,b,c,d]\le[198,9]$.

Durer Math Competition CD Finals - geometry, 2019.C5

$A, B, C, D$ are four distinct points such that triangles $ABC$ and $CBD$ are both equilateral. Find as many circles as you can, which are equidistant from the four points. How can these circles be constructed? [i]Remark: The distance between a point $P$ and a circle c is measured as follows: we join $P$ and the centre of the circle with a straight line, and measure how much we need to travel along thisline (starting from $P$) to hit the perimeter of the circle. If $P$ is an internal point of the circle, the distance is the length of the shorter such segment. The distance between a circle and itscentre is the radius of the circle.[/i]
