Two circles, $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2,$ intersect at $X$ and $Y.$ The segment between their centers intersects $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ at $A$ and $B$ respectively, such that $AB=2.$ Given that the radii of $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are $3$ and $4,$ respectively, find $XY.$

Suppose that $ R(z)= \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} a_nz^n$ converges in a neighborhood of the unit circle $ \{ z : \;|z|=1\ \}$ in the complex plane, and $ R(z)=P(z) / Q(z)$ is a rational function in this neighborhood, where $ P$ and $ Q$ are polynomials of degree at most $ k$. Prove that there is a constant $ c$ independent of $ k$ such that \[ \sum_{n=-\infty} ^{\infty} |a_n| \leq ck^2 \max_{|z|=1} |R(z)|.\] [i]H. S. Shapiro, G. Somorjai[/i]

A hexagon inscribed in a circle has three consecutive sides each of length $3$ and three consecutive sides each of length $5$. The chord of the circle that divides the hexagon into two trapezoids, one with three sides each of length $3$ and the other with three sides each of length $5$, has length equal to $\frac mn$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$. $\text{(A)}\ 309 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 349 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 369 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 389\qquad \text{(E)}\ 409$

In triangle $ABC$, angle $C$ is right and the two catheti are both length $1$. For one given the choice of the point $P$ on the cathetus $BC$, the point $Q$ on the hypotenuse and the point $R$ are plotted on the second cathetus so that $PQ$ is parallel to $AC$ and $QR$ is parallel to $BC$. Thereby the triangle is divided into three parts. Determine the locations of point $P$ for which the rectangular part has a larger area than each of the other two parts.

A natural number $x$ is written on the board. In one move, we can take the number on the board and between any two of its digits in its decimal notation we can we put a sign $+$, or we may not put it, then we calculate the obtained result and we write it on the board in place of $x$. For example, from the number $819$. we can get $18$ by $8 + 1 + 9$, $90$ by $81 + 9$, and $27$ by $8 + 19$. Prove that no matter what $x$ is, we can reach a single digit number with at most $4$ moves.

[b]p1.[/b] At $8$ AM Black Widow and Hawkeye began to move towards each other from two cities. They were planning to meet at the midpoint between two cities, but because Black Widow was driving $100$ mi/h faster than Hawkeye, they met at the point that is located $120$ miles from the midpoint. When they met Black Widow said ”If I knew that you drive so slow I would have started one hour later, and then we would have met exactly at the midpoint”. Find the distance between cities. [b]p2.[/b] Solve the inequality: $\frac{x-1}{x-2} \le \frac{x-2}{x-1}$. [b]p3.[/b] Solve the equation: $(x - y - z)^2 + (2x - 3y + 2z + 4)^2 + (x + y + z - 8)^2 = 0$. [b]p4.[/b] Three camps are located in the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The roads connecting camps are along the sides of the triangle. Captain America is inside the triangle and he needs to know the distances between camps. Being able to see the roads he has found that the sum of the shortest distances from his location to the roads is $50$ miles. Can you help Captain America to evaluate the distances between the camps. [b]p5.[/b] $N$ regions are located in the plane, every pair of them have a nonempty overlap. Each region is a connected set, that means every two points inside the region can be connected by a curve all points of which belong to the region. Iron Man has one charge remaining to make a laser shot. Is it possible for him to make the shot that goes through all $N$ regions? [b]p6.[/b] Numbers $1, 2, . . . , 100$ are randomly divided in two groups $50$ numbers in each. In the first group the numbers are written in increasing order and denoted $a_1$, $a_2$, $...$ , $a_{50}$. In the second group the numbers are written in decreasing order and denoted $b_1$, $b_2$, $...$, $b_{50}$. Thus, $a_1 < a_2 < ... < a_{50}$ and $b_1 > b2_ > ... > b_{50}$. Evaluate $|a_1 - b_1| + |a_2 - b_2| + ... + |a_{50} - b_{50}|$. PS. You should use hide for answers.

The adjoining figure shows two intersecting chords in a circle, with $B$ on minor arc $AD$. Suppose that the radius of the circle is 5, that $BC = 6$, and that $AD$ is bisected by $BC$. Suppose further that $AD$ is the only chord starting at $A$ which is bisected by $BC$. It follows that the sine of the minor arc $AB$ is a rational number. If this fraction is expressed as a fraction $m/n$ in lowest terms, what is the product $mn$?

Let $n$ to be a positive integer. Given a set $\{ a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n \} $ of integers, where $a_i \in \{ 0, 1, 2, 3, \ldots, 2^n -1 \},$ $\forall i$, we associate to each of its subsets the sum of its elements; particularly, the empty subset has sum of its elements equal to $0$. If all of these sums have different remainders when divided by $2^n$, we say that $\{ a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n \} $ is [i]$n$-complete[/i]. For each $n$, find the number of [i]$n$-complete[/i] sets.
