Give an example of a second degree polynomial $P\in \mathbb{R}[x]$ such that \[\forall x\in \mathbb{R}\text{ with } |x|\leqslant 1: \; \left|P(x)+\frac{1}{x-4}\right| \leqslant 0.01.\] Are there linear polynomials with this property? [i]Octavian Stănășilă[/i]

In the parallelogram $ABCD$, $\angle BAD =60 ^ \circ$. Let $E $ be the intersection point of the diagonals. The circle circumscribed to the triangle $ACD$ intersects the line $AB$ at the point $K$ (different from $A$), the line $BD$ at the point $P$ (different from $D$), and to the line $BC$ in $L$ (different from $C$). The line $EP$ intersects the circumscribed circle of the triangle $CEL$ at the points $E$ and $M$. Show that the triangles $KLM$ and $CAP$ are congruent.

To each vertex of a regular pentagon an integer is assigned, so that the sum of all five numbers is positive. If three consecutive vertices are assigned the numbers $x,y,z$ respectively, and $y<0$, then the following operation is allowed: $x,y,z$ are replaced by $x+y,-y,z+y$ respectively. Such an operation is performed repeatedly as long as at least one of the five numbers is negative. Determine whether this procedure necessarily comes to an end after a finite number of steps.

Let $\alpha\leq 22$ be non-negative integer. For which $\alpha$ does the equation $$8x^{23}-5^{\alpha}y^{23}=1$$ have the most integer solutions (x,y)? What can we say about $\alpha\geq 23$? [hide=Note]I believe the eqn has solutions only when $\alpha=0$. taking modulo 47, $\alpha\equiv 9,17\pmod{23}$ or ($23|\alpha$ and $47|x$). taking modulo 139 and 277 eliminates the $\alpha\equiv 9,17\pmod{23}$ cases. 139=23*6+1 , 277=23*12+1[/hide]

An equilateral triangle of side $n$ has been divided into little equilateral triangles of side $1$ in the usual way. We draw a path over the segments of this triangulation, in such a way that it visits exactly once each one of the $\frac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}$ vertices. What is the minimum number of times the path can change its direction? The figure below shows a valid path on a triangular board of side $4$, with exactly $9$ changes of direction.

In the diagram below, $ABCD$ is a square. Point $E$ is the midpoint of $\overline{AD}$. Points $F$ and $G$ lie on $\overline{CE}$, and $H$ and $J$ lie on $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{BC}$, respectively, so that $FGHJ$ is a square.
