Consider an acute triangle $ABC$ and it's circumcircle $\omega$. With center $A$, we construct a circle $\gamma$ that intersects arc $AB$ of circle $\omega$ , that doesn't contain $C$, at point $D$ and arc $AC$ , that doesn't contain $B$, at point $E$. Suppose that the intersection point $K$ of lines $BE$ and $CD$ lies on circle $\gamma$. Prove that line $AK$ is perpendicular on line $BC$.

A set $S$ consists of $k$ sequences of $0,1,2$ of length $n$. For any two sequences $(a_i),(b_i)\in S$ we can construct a new sequence $(c_i)$ such that $c_i=\left\lfloor\frac{a_i+b_i+1}2\right\rfloor$ and include it in $S$. Assume that after performing finitely many such operations we obtain all the $3n$ sequences of $0,1,2$ of length $n$. Find the least possible value of $k$.

Let $A$ be a real number and $(a_{n})$ be a sequence of real numbers such that $a_{1}=1$ and \[1<\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}\leq A \mbox{ for all }n\in\mathbb{N}.\] $(a)$ Show that there is a unique non-decreasing surjective function $f: \mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ such that $1<A^{k(n)}/a_{n}\leq A$ for all $n\in \mathbb{N}$. $(b)$ If $k$ takes every value at most $m$ times, show that there is a real number $C>1$ such that $Aa_{n}\geq C^{n}$ for all $n\in \mathbb{N}$.

A sequence of positive integers $a_1,a_2,a_3,\ldots$ satisfies $$a_{n+1} = n\left \lfloor \frac{a_n}{n} \right \rfloor + 1$$ for all positive integers $n$. If $a_{30}=30$, how many possible values can $a_1$ take? (For a real number $x$, $\lfloor x \rfloor$ denotes the largest integer that is not greater than $x$.)

A set consisting of at least two distinct positive integers is called [i]centenary [/i] if its greatest element is $100$. We will consider the average of all numbers in a centenary set, which we will call the average of the set. For example, the average of the centenary set $\{1, 2, 20, 100\}$ is $\frac{123}{4}$ and the average of the centenary set $\{74, 90, 100\}$ is $88$. Determine all integers that can occur as the average of a centenary set.

Ali Barber, the carpet merchant, has a rectangular piece of carpet whose dimensions are unknown. Unfortunately, his tape measure is broken and he has no other measuring instruments. However, he finds that if he lays it flat on the floor of either of his storerooms, then each corner of the carpet touches a different wall of that room. If the two rooms have dimensions of 38 feet by 55 feet and 50 feet by 55 feet, what are the carpet dimensions?

There are $100$ lines in the plane, such that no two are parallel and no three are concurrent. Consider the quadrilaterals such that all their sides lie on these lines (including the quadrilaterals whose interior is crossed by some of these lines). Is it true that the number of convex quadrilaterals equals the number of non-convex ones?
