$p, q, r$ are natural numbers greater than 1. There are $pq$ balls placed on a circle, and one number among $0, 1, 2, \cdots , pr-1$ is written on each ball, satisfying following conditions. (1) If $i$ and $j$ is written on two adjacent balls, $|i-j|=1$ or $|i-j|=pr-1$. (2) $i$ is written on a ball $A$. If we skip $q-1$ balls clockwise from $A$ and see $q^{th}$ ball, $i+r$ or $i-(p-1)r$ is written on it. (This condition is satisfied for every ball.) If $p$ is even, prove that the number of pairs of two adjacent balls with $1$ and $2$ written on it is odd.

Let $(O)$ be a fixed circle with the radius $R$. Let $A$ and $B$ be fixed points in $(O)$ such that $A,B,O$ are not collinear. Consider a variable point $C$ lying on $(O)$ ($C\neq A,B$).

Prove that: a) \[ CD\leq R \] b) The line $CD$ passes through a point independent of $C$ (i.e. there exists a fixed point on the line $CD$ when $C$ lies on $(O)$).

Joel selected an acute angle $x$ (strictly between 0 and 90 degrees) and wrote the values of $\sin x$, $\cos x$, and $\tan x$ on three different cards. Then he gave those cards to three students, Malvina, Paulina, and Georgina, one card to each, and asked them to figure out which trigonometric function (sin, cos, or tan) produced their cards. Even after sharing the values on their cards with each other, only Malvina was able to surely identify which function produced the value on her card. Compute the sum of all possible values that Joel wrote on Malvina's card.
