2001 Spain Mathematical Olympiad, Problem 4

The integers between $1$ and $9$ inclusive are distributed in the units of a $3$ x $3$ table. You sum six numbers of three digits: three that are read in the rows from left to right, and three that are read in the columns from top to bottom. Is there any such distribution for which the value of this sum is equal to $2001$?

Ivan is playing Lego with $4n^2$ $1 \times 2$ blocks. First, he places $2n^2$ $1 \times 2$ blocks to fit a $2n \times 2n$ square as the bottom layer. Then he builds the top layer on top of the bottom layer using the remaining $2n^2$ $1 \times 2$ blocks. Note that the blocks in the bottom layer are connected to the blocks above it in the top layer, just like real Lego blocks. He wants the whole two-layered building to be connected and not in seperate pieces. Prove that if he can do so, then the four $1\times 2$ blocks connecting the four corners of the bottom layer, must be all placed horizontally or all vertically. [i]Proposed by Ivan Chan Kai Chin[/i]

2024 Assara - South Russian Girl's MO, 8

There are $15$ boys and $15$ girls in the class. The first girl is friends with $4$ boys, the second with $5$, the third with $6$, . . . , the $11$th with $14$, and each of the other four girls is friends with all the boys. It turned out that there are exactly $3 \cdot 2^{25}$ ways to split the entire class into pairs, so that each pair has a boy and a girl who are friends. Prove that any of the friends of the first girl are friends with all the other girls too. [i]G.M.Sharafetdinova[/i]

Let $\tau(n)$ denote the number of positive integer divisors of a positive integer $n$ (for example, $\tau(2022) = 8$). Given a polynomial $P(X)$ with integer coefficients, we define a sequence $a_1, a_2,\ldots$ of nonnegative integers by setting \[a_n =\begin{cases}\gcd(P(n), \tau (P(n)))&\text{if }P(n) > 0\\0 &\text{if }P(n) \leq0\end{cases}\] for each positive integer $n$. We then say the sequence [i]has limit infinity[/i] if every integer occurs in this sequence only finitely many times (possibly not at all). Does there exist a choice of $P(X)$ for which the sequence $a_1$, $a_2$, . . . has limit infinity? [i]Jovan Vuković[/i]

Maisy is at the origin of the coordinate plane. On her first step, she moves $1$ unit up. On her second step, she moves $ 1$ unit to the right. On her third step, she moves $2$ units up. On her fourth step, she moves $2$ units to the right. She repeats this pattern with each odd-numbered step being $ 1$ unit more than the previous step. Given that the point that Maisy lands on after her $21$st step can be written in the form $(x, y)$, find the value of $x + y$. Proposed by Audrey Chun

The side lengths $a,$ $b,$ $c$ of a triangle $ABC$ form an arithmetical progression (such that $b-a=c-b$). The side lengths $a_{1},$ $b_{1},$ $c_{1}$ of a triangle $A_{1}B_{1}C_{1}$ also form an arithmetical progression (with $b_{1}-a_{1}=c_{1}-b_{1}$). [Hereby, $a=BC,$ $b=CA,$ $c=AB, $ $a_{1}=B_{1}C_{1},$ $b_{1}=C_{1}A_{1},$ $c_{1}=A_{1}B_{1}.$] Moreover, we know that $\measuredangle CAB=\measuredangle C_{1}A_{1}B_{1}.$ Show that triangles $ABC$ and $A_{1}B_{1}C_{1}$ are similar.

We colour every square of the $ 2009$ x $ 2009$ board with one of $ n$ colours (we do not have to use every colour). A colour is called connected if either there is only one square of that colour or any two squares of the colour can be reached from one another by a sequence of moves of a chess queen without intermediate stops at squares having another colour (a chess quen moves horizontally, vertically or diagonally). Find the maximum $ n$, such that for every colouring of the board at least on colour present at the board is connected.
