Kostya marked the points $A(0, 1), B(1, 0), C(0, 0)$ in the coordinate plane. On the legs of the triangle ABC he marked the points with coordinates $(\frac{1}{2},0), (\frac{1}{3},0), \cdots, (\frac{1}{n+1},0)$ and $(0,\frac{1}{2}), (0,\frac{1}{3}), \cdots, (0,\frac{1}{n+1}).$ Then Kostya joined each pair of marked points with a segment. Sasha drew a $1 \times n$ rectangle and joined with a segment each pair of integer points on its border. As a result both the triangle and the rectangle are divided into polygons by the segments drawn. Who has the greater number of polygons:
Sasha or Kostya?

Consider the infinite grid of lattice points in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. Little D and Big Z play a game, where Little D first loses a shoe on an unmunched point in the grid. Then, Big Z munches a shoe-free plane perpendicular to one of the coordinate axes. They continue to alternate turns in this fashion, with Little D's goal to lose a shoe on each of $n$ consecutive lattice points on a line parallel to one of the coordinate axes. Determine all $n$ for which Little D can accomplish his goal.

Niki and Kyle play a triangle game. Niki first draws $\triangle ABC$ with area $1$, and Kyle picks a point $X$ inside $\triangle ABC$. Niki then draws segments $\overline{DG}$, $\overline{EH}$, and $\overline{FI}$, all through $X$, such that $D$ and $E$ are on $\overline{BC}$, $F$ and $G$ are on $\overline{AC}$, and $H$ and $I$ are on $\overline{AB}$. The ten points must all be distinct. Finally, let $S$ be the sum of the areas of triangles $DEX$, $FGX$, and $HIX$. Kyle earns $S$ points, and Niki earns $1-S$ points. If both players play optimally to maximize the amount of points they get, who will win and by how much?

The problems are really difficult to find online, so here are the problems.
P1. It is known that two positive integers $m$ and $n$ satisfy $10n - 9m = 7$ dan $m \leq 2018$. The number $k = 20 - \frac{18m}{n}$ is a fraction in its simplest form.
a) Determine the smallest possible value of $k$.
b) If the denominator of the smallest value of $k$ is (equal to some number) $N$, determine all positive factors of $N$.
c) On taking one factor out of all the mentioned positive factors of $N$ above (specifically in problem b), determine the probability of taking a factor who is a multiple of 4.
I added this because my translation is a bit weird.

P2. Let the functions $f, g : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ be given in the following graphs.
[hide=Graph Construction Notes]I do not know asymptote, can you please help me draw the graphs? Here are its complete description:
For both graphs, draw only the X and Y-axes, do not draw grids. Denote each axis with $X$ or $Y$ depending on which line you are referring to, and on their intercepts, draw a small node (a circle) then mark their $X$ or $Y$ coordinates only (since their other coordinates are definitely 0).
Graph (1) is the function $f$, who is a quadratic function with -2 and 4 as its $X$-intercepts and 4 as its $Y$-intercept. You also put $f$ right besides the curve you have, preferably just on the right-up direction of said curve.
Graph (2) is the function $g$, which is piecewise. For $x \geq 0$, $g(x) = \frac{1}{2}x - 2$, whereas for $x < 0$, $g(x) = - x - 2$. You also put $g$ right besides the curve you have, on the lower right of the line, on approximately $x = 2$.[/hide]
Define the function $g \circ f$ with $(g \circ f)(x) = g(f(x))$ for all $x \in D_f$ where $D_f$ is the domain of $f$.
a) Draw the graph of the function $g \circ f$.
b) Determine all values of $x$ so that $-\frac{1}{2} \leq (g \circ f)(x) \leq 6$.
P3. The quadrilateral $ABCD$ has side lengths $AB = BC = 4\sqrt{3}$ cm and $CD = DA = 4$ cm. All four of its vertices lie on a circle. Calculate the area of quadrilateral $ABCD$.
P4. There exists positive integers $x$ and $y$, with $x < 100$ and $y > 9$. It is known that $y = \frac{p}{777} x$, where $p$ is a 3-digit number whose number in its tens place is 5. Determine the number/quantity of all possible values of $y$.
P5. The 8-digit number $\overline{abcdefgh}$ (the original problem does not have an overline, which I fixed) is arranged from the set $\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8\}$. Such number satisfies $a + c + e + g \geq b + d + f + h$. Determine the quantity of different possible (such) numbers.

In the coordinate plane a rectangle with vertices $ (0, 0),$ $ (m, 0),$ $ (0, n),$ $ (m, n)$ is given where both $ m$ and $ n$ are odd integers. The rectangle is partitioned into triangles in such a way that
[i](i)[/i] each triangle in the partition has at least one side (to be called a “good” side) that lies on a line of the form $ x \equal{} j$ or $ y \equal{} k,$ where $ j$ and $ k$ are integers, and the altitude on this side has length 1;
[i](ii)[/i] each “bad” side (i.e., a side of any triangle in the partition that is not a “good” one) is a common side of two triangles in the partition.
Prove that there exist at least two triangles in the partition each of which has two good sides.

Alice and Bob find themselves on a coordinate plane at time $t=0$ at $A(1,0)$ and $B(-1,0)$ respectively. They have no sense of direction, but they want to find each other. They each pick a direction independently and with uniform random probability. Both Alice and Bob travel at a constant speed of $1 \frac{unit}{min}$ in their chosen directions. They continue on their straight line paths forever, each hoping to catch sight of the other. They both have a $1$ unit radius of view; they can see something if and only if its distance from them is at most $1$ unit. What is the probability they never see each other?

In a plane we have $n$ lines, no two of which are parallel or perpendicular, and no three of which are concurrent. A cartesian system of coordinates is chosen for the plane with one of the lines as the $x$-axis. A point $P$ is located at the origin of the coordinate system and starts moving along the positive $x$-axis with constant velocity. Whenever $P$ reaches the intersection of two lines, it continues along the line it just reached in the direction that increases its $x$-coordinate. Show that it is possible to choose the system of coordinates in such a way that $P$ visits points from all $n$ lines.

Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be the distances from $P$ to $A$, $B$, $C$ respectively. Show that there is a triangle with side lengths $a$, $b$, $c$, and that the area of this triangle depends only on the distance from $P$ to $O$.
