$\textbf{(a)}$ On the sides of triangle $ABC$ we consider the points $M\in \overline{BC}$, $N\in \overline{AC}$ and $P\in \overline{AB}$ such that the quadrilateral $MNAP$ with right angles $\angle MNA$ and $\angle MPA$ has an inscribed circle. Prove that $MNAP$ has to be a kite. $\textbf{(b)}$ Is it possible for an isosceles trapezoid to be orthodiagonal and circumscribed too? [i] (Călin Udrea) [/i]

Let $P$ be a point on the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$. Construct an arbitrary triangle $A_1B_1C_1$ whose sides $A_1B_1$, $B_1C_1$ and $C_1A_1$ are parallel to the segments $PC$, $PA$ and $PB$ respectively and draw lines through the vertices $A_1$, $B_1$ and $C_1$ and parallel to the sides $BC$, $CA$ and $AB$ respectively. Prove that these three lines have a common point lying on the circumcircle of triangle $A_1B_1C_1$. (V. Prasolov)

Let $S$ be the set of [b]lattice[/b] points whose both coordinates are positive integers no larger than $2022$. i.e., $S=\{(x, y) \mid x, y\in \mathbb{N}, \, 1\leq x, y\leq 2022\}$. We put a card with one gold side and one black side on each point in $S$. We call a rectangle [i]"good"[/i] if: (i) All of its sides are parallel to the axes and have positive integer coordinates no larger than $2022$. (ii) The cards on its top-left and bottom-right corners are showing gold, and the cards on its top-right and bottom-left corners are showing black. Each [i]"move"[/i] consists of choosing a good rectangle and flipping all cards simultaneously on its four corners. Find the maximum possible number of moves one can perform, or show that one can perform infinitely many moves. [i]Proposed by CSJL[/i]

The lock of a safe consists of 3 wheels, each of which may be set in 8 different ways positions. Due to a defect in the safe mechanism the door will open if any two of the three wheels are in the correct position. What is the smallest number of combinations which must be tried if one is to guarantee being able to open the safe (assuming the "right combination" is not known)?
