Let $\omega$ be the circumscribed circle of the triangle $ABC$, in which $AC< AB$, $K$ is the center of the arc $BAC$, $KW$ is the diameter of the circle $\omega$. The circle $\gamma$ is inscribed in the curvilinear triangle formed by the segments $BC$, $AB$ and the arc $AC$ of the circle $\omega$. It turned out that circle $\gamma$ also touches $KW$ at point $F$. Let $I$ be the center of the triangle $ABC$, $M$ is the midpoint of the smaller arc $AK$, and $T$ is the second intersection point of $MI$ with the circle $\omega$.

We say that a prime $p$ is $n$-$\textit{rephinado}$ if $n | p - 1$ and all $1, 2, \ldots , \lfloor \sqrt[\delta]{p}\rfloor$ are $n$-th residuals modulo $p$, where $\delta = \varphi+1$. Are there infinitely many $n$ for which there are infinitely many $n$-$\textit{rephinado}$ primes? Notes: $\varphi =\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$. We say that an integer $a$ is a $n$-th residue modulo $p$ if there is an integer $x$ such that $$x^n \equiv a \text{ (mod } p\text{)}.$$

A bug (of negligible size) starts at the origin on the coordinate plane. First, it moves one unit right to $(1,0)$. Then it makes a $90^\circ$ counterclockwise and travels $\frac 12$ a unit to $\left(1, \frac 12 \right)$. If it continues in this fashion, each time making a $90^\circ$ degree turn counterclockwise and traveling half as far as the previous move, to which of the following points will it come closest? $\text{(A)} \ \left(\frac 23, \frac 23 \right) \qquad \text{(B)} \ \left( \frac 45, \frac 25 \right) \qquad \text{(C)} \ \left( \frac 23, \frac 45 \right) \qquad \text{(D)} \ \left(\frac 23, \frac 13 \right) \qquad \text{(E)} \ \left(\frac 25, \frac 45 \right)$

Players $A$ and $B$ play a game with $N \geq 2012$ coins and $2012$ boxes arranged around a circle. Initially $A$ distributes the coins among the boxes so that there is at least $1$ coin in each box. Then the two of them make moves in the order $B,A,B,A,\ldots $ by the following rules: [b](a)[/b] On every move of his $B$ passes $1$ coin from every box to an adjacent box. [b](b)[/b] On every move of hers $A$ chooses several coins that were [i]not[/i] involved in $B$'s previous move and are in different boxes. She passes every coin to an adjacent box. Player $A$'s goal is to ensure at least $1$ coin in each box after every move of hers, regardless of how $B$ plays and how many moves are made. Find the least $N$ that enables her to succeed.

In the convex quadrilateral of the $ABCD$, the diagonals of $AC$ and $BD$ are mutually perpendicular and intersect at point $E$. On the side of $AD$, a point $P$ is chosen such that $PE = EC$. The circumscribed circle of the triangle $BCD$ intersects the segment $AD$ at the point $Q$. The circle passing through point $A$ and tangent to the line $EP$ at point $P$ intersects the segment $AC$ at point $R$. It turns out that points $B, Q, R$ are collinear. Prove that $\angle BCD = 90^o$.
