Consider point $A$ not lying on the line $BC$ and draw the circles $C_1(K_1,R_1)$ (with center $K_1$ and radius $R_1$) and $C_2(K_2,R_2)$ with chord $AB, AC$ respectively such that their centers lie on the interior of the triangle $ABC$ and also $R_1 \cdot AC= R_2 \cdot AB$. Let $T$ be the intersection point of the two circles, different from $A$, and M be a random pointof line $AT$, prove that $TC \cdot S_{(MBT)}=TB \cdot S_{(MCT)}$

Sheila is making a regular-hexagon-shaped sign with side length $ 1$. Let $ABCDEF$ be the regular hexagon, and let $R, S,T$ and U be the midpoints of $FA$, $BC$, $CD$ and $EF$, respectively. Sheila splits the hexagon into four regions of equal width: trapezoids $ABSR$, $RSCF$ , $FCTU$, and $UTDE$. She then paints the middle two regions gold. The fraction of the total hexagon that is gold can be written in the form $m/n$ , where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m + n$.

A triangle is given. Its side a is of length $20$ cm, and its area is $125$ cm$^2$. It is also known that one of the angles lying on side a is twice as large as the other one. We cut the triangle into two parts at the median belonging to side a. Then we move the so-obtained two parts towards each other, such that the two segments of side a remain on the same line (i.e., the line initially occupied by side a). We move the two parts towards each other until we first reach a moment when the common part of the two segments is of length $4$ cm. What is the area of the so-obtained shape in cm$^2$? The so-obtained shape is the union of the two parts, which is a heptagon. [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/3/0/3d45e2df6a0043dfa4fe5ccf64865da8879b42.png[/img]

In a square $ABCD$ of diagonals $AC$ and $BD$, we call $O$ at the center of the square. A square $PQRS$ is constructed with sides parallel to those of $ABCD$ with $P$ in segment $AO, Q$ in segment $BO, R$ in segment $CO, S$ in segment $DO$. If area of $ABCD$ equals two times the area of $PQRS$, and $M$ is the midpoint of the $AB$ side, calculate the measure of the angle $\angle AMP$.

Given a natural number $n> 3$. On the plane are considered convex $n$ - gons $F_1$ and $F_2$ such that on each side of $F_1$ lies one vertex of $F_2$ and no two vertices $F_1$ and $F_2$ coincide. For each $n$, determine the limits of the ratio of the areas of the polygons $F_1$ and $F_2$. For each $n$, determine the range of the areas of the polygons $F_1$ and $F_2$, if $F_1$ is a regular $n$-gon. Determine the set of values of this value for other partial cases of the polygon $F_1$.
