In quadrilateral $ABCD$, a circle $\omega$ is inscribed. A point $K$ is chosen on diagonal $AC$. Segment $BK$ intersects $\omega$ at a unique point $X$, and segment $DK$ intersects $\omega$ at a unique point $Y$. It turns out that $XY$ is the diameter of $\omega$. Prove that it is perpendicular to $AC$. [i]Proposed by Tseren Frantsuzov[/i]

Let $S$ be a finite set of points on a plane, where no three points are collinear, and the convex hull of $S$, $\Omega$, is a $2016-$gon $A_1A_2\ldots A_{2016}$. Every point on $S$ is labelled one of the four numbers $\pm 1,\pm 2$, such that for $i=1,2,\ldots , 1008,$ the numbers labelled on points $A_i$ and $A_{i+1008}$ are the negative of each other. Draw triangles whose vertices are in $S$, such that any two triangles do not have any common interior points, and the union of these triangles is $\Omega$. Prove that there must exist a triangle, where the numbers labelled on some two of its vertices are the negative of each other.

1997 Federal Competition For Advanced Students, Part 2, 2

We define the following operation which will be applied to a row of bars being situated side-by-side on positions $1, 2, \ldots ,N$. Each bar situated at an odd numbered position is left as is, while each bar at an even numbered position is replaced by two bars. After that, all bars will be put side-by- side in such a way that all bars form a new row and are situated on positions $1, \ldots,M$. From an initial number $a_0 > 0$ of bars there originates a sequence $(a_n)_{n \geq 0}$, where an is the number of bars after having applied the operation $n$ times. [b](a)[/b] Prove that for no $n > 0$ can we have $a_n = 1997$. [b](b)[/b] Determine all natural numbers that can only occur as $a_0$ or $a_1$.

Given a non-degenerate triangle $ABC$, let $A_{1}, B_{1}, C_{1}$ be the point of tangency of the incircle with the sides $BC, AC, AB$. Let $Q$ and $L$ be the intersection of the segment $AA_{1}$ with the incircle and the segment $B_{1}C_{1}$ respectively. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $B_{1}C_{1}$. Let $T$ be the point of intersection of $BC$ and $B_{1}C_{1}$. Let $P$ be the foot of the perpendicular from the point $L$ on the line $AT$. Prove that the points $A_{1}, M, Q, P$ lie on a circle.
