In a convex quadrilateral $ ABCD$ the points $ P$ and $ Q$ are chosen on the sides $ BC$ and $ CD$ respectively so that $ \angle{BAP}\equal{}\angle{DAQ}$. Prove that the line, passing through the orthocenters of triangles $ ABP$ and $ ADQ$, is perpendicular to $ AC$ if and only if the triangles $ ABP$ and $ ADQ$ have the same areas.

Let $ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral. Points $X$ and $Y$ lie on the extensions beyond $D$ of the sides $CD$ and $AD$ respectively in such a way that $DX = AB$ and $DY = BC$. Similarly points $Z$ and $T$ lie on the extensions beyond $B$ of the sides $CB$ and $AB$ respectively in such a way that $BZ = AD$ and $BT = DC$. Let $M_1$ be the midpoint of $XY$, and $M_2$ be the midpoint of $ZT$. Prove that the lines $DM_1, BM_2$ and $AC$ concur.

The numbers $1$ to $500$ are written on a board. Two pupils $A$ and $B$ play the following game: A player in turn deletes one of the numbers from the board. The game is over when only two numbers remain. Player $B$ wins if the sum of the two remaining numbers is divisible by $3,$ otherwise $A$ wins. If $A$ plays first, show that $B$ has a winning strategy.

Two people, $A$ and $B$, play the game of blowing up a balloon. The balloon will explode only when the volume of the balloon $V>2014$ mL. $A$ blows in $1$ mL first, and then they takes turns blowing. It is agreed that the gas blown by each person must not be less than the gas blown by the other party last time and should not be more than twice the amount of gas the other party blew last time. The agreement is that the person who blows up the balloon loses. Who has a winning strategy ? Briefly explain it. (Do not consider the change in volume caused by the change in tension when the balloon is inflated).

Let $AB$ be a chord on a circle $O$, $M$ be the midpoint of the smaller arc $AB$. From a point $C$ outside the circle $O$ draws two tangents to the circle $O$ at the points $S$ and $T$. Suppose $MS$ intersects with $AB$ at the point $E$, $MT$ intersects with $AB$ at the point $F$. From $E,F$ draw a line perpendicular to $AB$ that intersects with $OS,OT$ at the points $X,Y$, respectively. Draw another line from $C$ which intersects with the circle $O$ at the points $P$ and $Q$. Let $R$ be the intersection point of $MP$ and $AB$. Finally, let $Z$ be the circumcenter of triangle $PQR$. Prove that $X$,$Y$ and $Z$ are collinear.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with circumcenter $O$. Let $P$ be the intersection of straight lines $BO$ and $AC$ and $\omega$ be the circumcircle of triangle $AOP$. Suppose that $BO = AP$ and that the measure of the arc $OP$ in $\omega$, that does not contain $A$, is $40^o$. Determine the measure of the angle $\angle OBC$.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. An equilateral triangle with side $n$ will be denoted by $T_n$ and is divided in $n^2$ unit equilateral triangles with sides parallel to the initial, forming a grid. We will call "trapezoid" the trapezoid which is formed by three equilateral triangles (one base is equal to one and the other is equal to two). Let also $m$ be a positive integer with $m<n$ and suppose that $T_n$ and $T_m$ can be tiled with "trapezoids". Prove that, if from $T_n$ we remove a $T_m$ with the same orientation, then the rest can be tiled with "trapezoids".

Let $p,q$ be positive integers. For any $a,b\in\mathbb{R}$ define the sets $$P(a)=\bigg\{a_n=a \ + \ n \ \cdot \ \frac{1}{p} : n\in\mathbb{N}\bigg\}\text{ and }Q(b)=\bigg\{b_n=b \ + \ n \ \cdot \ \frac{1}{q} : n\in\mathbb{N}\bigg\}.$$ The [i]distance[/i] between $P(a)$ and $Q(b)$ is the minimum value of $|x-y|$ as $x\in P(a), y\in Q(b)$. Find the maximum value of the distance between $P(a)$ and $Q(b)$ as $a,b\in\mathbb{R}$.
