Consider any rectangular table having finitely many rows and columns, with a real number $a(r, c)$ in the cell in row $r$ and column $c$. A pair $(R, C)$, where $R$ is a set of rows and $C$ a set of columns, is called a [i]saddle pair[/i] if the following two conditions are satisfied: [list] [*] $(i)$ For each row $r^{\prime}$, there is $r \in R$ such that $a(r, c) \geqslant a\left(r^{\prime}, c\right)$ for all $c \in C$; [*] $(ii)$ For each column $c^{\prime}$, there is $c \in C$ such that $a(r, c) \leqslant a\left(r, c^{\prime}\right)$ for all $r \in R$. [/list] A saddle pair $(R, C)$ is called a [i]minimal pair[/i] if for each saddle pair $\left(R^{\prime}, C^{\prime}\right)$ with $R^{\prime} \subseteq R$ and $C^{\prime} \subseteq C$, we have $R^{\prime}=R$ and $C^{\prime}=C$. Prove that any two minimal pairs contain the same number of rows.

Let ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral inscribed in $(O)$. $E, F$ are the midpoints of arcs $AB$ and $CD$ not containing the other vertices of the quadrilateral. The line passing through $E, F$ and parallel to the diagonals of $ABCD$ meet at $E, F, K, L$. Prove that $KL$ passes through $O$.

There was a rook at some square of a $10 \times 10{}$ chessboard. At each turn it moved to a square adjacent by side. It visited each square exactly once. Prove that for each main diagonal (the diagonal between the corners of the board) the following statement is true: in the rook’s path there were two consecutive steps at which the rook first stepped away from the diagonal and then returned back to the diagonal.

Consider the set of all integer points in $Z^3$. Sasha and Masha play such a game. At first, Masha marks an arbitrary point. After that, Sasha marks all the points on some a plane perpendicular to one of the coordinate axes and at no point, which Masha noted. Next, they continue to take turns (Masha can't to select previously marked points, Sasha cannot choose the planes on which there are points said Masha). Masha wants to mark $n$ consecutive points on some line that parallel to one of the coordinate axes, and Sasha seeks to interfere with it. Find all $n$, in which Masha can achieve the desired result.

Let $I$ be the center of a circle inscribed in triangle $ABC$. The circle circumscribed about the triangle $BIC$ intersects lines $AB$ and $AC$ at points $E$ and $F$, respectively. Prove that the line $EF$ touches the circle inscribed in the triangle $ABC$.

Around a circle, $20$ distinct positive integers are written. Alex divides each number by its neighbor, moving clockwise around the circle, and records the remainders obtained in each case. Teo performs a similar process but moves counterclockwise around the circle and records the remainders he obtains. If Alex finds only two distinct remainders among the $20$ he records, determine the number of distinct remainders Teo will record.

Let $F$ be a field whose characteristic is not $2$, let $F^*=F\setminus\left\{0\right\}$ be its multiplicative group and let $T$ be the subgroup of $F^*$ constituted by its finite order elements. Prove that if $T$ is finite, then $T$ is cyclic and its order is even.

We write one of the numbers $0$ and $1$ into each unit square of a chessboard with $40$ rows and $7$ columns.

Let $N$ be a positive integer. Consider a $N \times N$ array of square unit cells. Two corner cells that lie on the same longest diagonal are colored black, and the rest of the array is white. A [i]move[/i] consists of choosing a row or a column and changing the color of every cell in the chosen row or column. What is the minimal number of additional cells that one has to color black such that, after a finite number of moves, a completely black board can be reached?

Let $ABCD$ be a convex cyclic quadrilateral with diagonals $AC$ and $BD$. Each of the four vertixes are reflected across the diagonal on which the do not lie. (a) Investigate when the four points thus obtained lie on a straight line and give as simple an equivalent condition as possible to the cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ for it. (b) Show that in all other cases the four points thus obtained lie on one circle. (Theresia Eisenkölbl)

Two circles \(\Gamma\) and \(\Sigma\) intersect at two distinct points \(A\) and \(B\). A line through \(B\) intersects \(\Gamma\) and \(\Sigma\) again at \(C\) and \(D\), respectively. Suppose that \(CA=CD\). Show that the centre of \(\Sigma\) lies on \(\Gamma\).

Consider a $m*n$ board. On each box there's a non-negative integrer number assigned. An operation consists on choosing any two boxes with $1$ side in common, and add to this $2$ numbers the same integrer number (it can be negative), so that both results are non-negatives. What conditions must be satisfied initially on the assignment of the boxes, in order to have, after some operations, the number $0$ on every box?.

A line passing through the center $M$ of the equilateral triangle $ABC$ intersects sides $BC$ and $CA$, respectively, in points $D$ and $E$. Circumcircles of triangle $AEM$ and $BDM$ intersects, besides point $M$, also at point $P$. Prove that the center of circumcircle of triangle $DEP$ lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment $AB$.

Cookie Monster says a positive integer $n$ is $crunchy$ if there exist $2n$ real numbers $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_{2n}$, not all equal, such that the sum of any $n$ of the $x_i$'s is equal to the product of the other $n$ of the $x_i$'s.

Let $\Omega$ be a circle in a plane. $2022$ pink points and $2565$ blue points are placed inside $\Omega$ such that no point has two colors and no two points are collinear with the center of $\Omega$. Prove that there exists a sector of $\Omega$ such that the angle at the center is acute and the number of blue points inside the sector is greater than the number of pink points by exactly $100$. (Note: such sector may contain no pink points.)

The circumference of a circle is divided into $45$ arcs, each of length $1.$ Initially, there are $15$ snakes, each of length $1,$ occupying every third arc. Every second, each snake independently moves either one arc left or one arc right, each with probability $\tfrac{1}{2}.$ If two snakes ever touch, they merge to form a single snake occupying the arcs of both of the previous snakes, and the merged snake moves as one snake. Compute the expected number of seconds until there is only one snake left.
