Let points $A, B, C, A', B', C'$ be chosen in the plane such that no three of them are collinear, and let lines $AA'$, $BB'$ and $CC'$ be tangent to a given equilateral hyperbola at points $A$, $B$ and $C$, respectively. Assume that the circumcircle of $A'B'C'$ is the same as the nine-point circle of triangle $ABC$. Let $s(A')$ be the Simson line of point $A'$ with respect to the orthic triangle of $ABC$. Let $A^*$ be the intersection of line $B'C'$ and the perpendicular on $s(A')$ from the point $A$. Points $B^*$ and $C^*$ are defined in a similar manner. Prove that points $A^*$, $B^*$ and $C^*$ are collinear. [i]Submitted by Áron Bán-Szabó, Budapest[/i]

How many distinct triangles are there with prime side lengths and perimeter $100$? [i]Proposed by Muztaba Syed[/i] [hide=Solution][i]Solution.[/i] $\boxed{0}$ As the perimeter is even, $1$ of the sides must be $2$. Thus, the other $2$ sides are congruent by Triangle Inequality. Thus, for the perimeter to be $100$, both of the other sides must be $49$, but as $49$ is obviously composite, the answer is thus $\boxed{0}$.[/hide]
