Points $A$, $B$, and $C$ lie on a line, in that order, with $AB=8$ and $BC=2$. $B$ is rotated $20^\circ$ counter-clockwise about $A$ to a point $B'$, tracing out an arc $R_1$. $C$ is then rotated $20^\circ$ clockwise about $A$ to a point $C'$, tracing out an arc $R_2$. What is the area of the region bounded by arc $R_1$, segment $B'C$, arc $R_2$, and segment $C'B$? [i]Proposed by Thomas Lam[/i]

Let triangle $\vartriangle ABC$ have circumcenter $O$ and circumradius $r$, and let $\omega$ be the circumcircle of ntriangle $\vartriangle BOC$. Let $F$ be the intersection of $\overleftrightarrow{AO}$ and $\omega$ not equal to $O$. Let $E$ be on line $\overleftrightarrow{AB}$ such that $\overline{EF} \perp \overline{AE}$, and let $G$ be on line $\overleftrightarrow{AC}$ such that $\overline{GF} \perp \overline{AG}$. If $AC =\frac{65}{63}$ , $BC = \frac{24}{13}r$, and $AB = \frac{126}{65}r$, compute $AF \cdot EG$.

(It is possible that the same pair meets twice or more times, in different days) Prove that it is possible that the contest ends like this: - there is only one winner; - there are $\displaystyle 3$ students on the second place; - no student lost all $\displaystyle 4$ matches. How many students won only a single match and how many won exactly $\displaystyle 2$ matches? (In the above conditions)

The persons $P_1, P_2, . . . , P_{n-1}, P_n$ sit around a table, in this order, and each one of them has a number of coins. In the start, $P_1$ has one coin more than $P_2, P_2$ has one coin more than $P_3$, etc., up to $P_{n-1}$ who has one coin more than $P_n$. Now $P_1$ gives one coin to $P_2$, who in turn gives two coins to $P_3 $ etc., up to $ Pn$ who gives n coins to $ P_1$. Now the process continues in the same way: $P_1$ gives $n+ 1$ coins to $P_2$, $P_2$ gives $n+2$ coins to $P_3$; in this way the transactions go on until someone has not enough coins, i.e. a person no more can give away one coin more than he just received. At the moment when the process comes to an end in this manner, it turns out that there are two neighbours at the table such that one of them has exactly five times as many coins as the other. Determine the number of persons and the number of coins circulating around the table.
