An angle $x$ is chosen at random from the interval $0^\circ < x < 90^\circ$. Let $p$ be the probability that the numbers $\sin^2 x$, $\cos^2 x$, and $\sin x \cos x$ are not the lengths of the sides of a triangle. Given that $p = d/n$, where $d$ is the number of degrees in $\arctan m$ and $m$ and $n$ are positive integers with $m + n < 1000$, find $m + n$.

The MIG is planning a lottery to give out prizes after the written tests, and the plan is very special. Contestants will be divided into prize groups in order to potentially receive a prize. However, based on the number of contestants, the ideal number of groups don't work. For example, when dividing into $4$ groups, there are $3$ left over. When dividing into $5$ groups, there's $2$ left over. When dividing into $6$ groups, theres $1$ left over. Finally, when dividing into $7$ groups, there are $2$ left over. With the knowledge that there are less than $300$ participants in the MIG, how many participants are there?

Hiram's algebra notes are $50$ pages long and are printed on $25$ sheets of paper; the first sheet contains pages $1$ and $2$, the second sheet contains pages $3$ and $4$, and so on. One day he leaves his notes on the table before leaving for lunch, and his roommate decides to borrow some pages from the middle of the notes. When Hiram comes back, he discovers that his roommate has taken a consecutive set of sheets from the notes and that the average (mean) of the page numbers on all remaining sheets is exactly $19$. How many sheets were borrowed? $\textbf{(A)}\ 10\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 13\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 15\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 17\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 20$

Consider the arc $DA'$ of the nine point circle of triangle $ABC$ lying outside the triangle. Let the point of trisection of this arc closer to $A'$ be $A''$. Define analogously the points $B''$ (on arc $EB'$) and $C''$(on arc $FC'$). Show that triangle $A''B''C''$ is equilateral.

2017 Germany Team Selection Test, 1

The leader of an IMO team chooses positive integers $n$ and $k$ with $n > k$, and announces them to the deputy leader and a contestant. The leader then secretly tells the deputy leader an $n$-digit binary string, and the deputy leader writes down all $n$-digit binary strings which differ from the leader’s in exactly $k$ positions. (For example, if $n = 3$ and $k = 1$, and if the leader chooses $101$, the deputy leader would write down $001, 111$ and $100$.) The contestant is allowed to look at the strings written by the deputy leader and guess the leader’s string. What is the minimum number of guesses (in terms of $n$ and $k$) needed to guarantee the correct answer?
