After multiplying out and simplifying polynomial $ (x \minus{} 1)(x^2 \minus{} 1)(x^3 \minus{} 1)\cdots(x^{2007} \minus{} 1),$ getting rid of all terms whose powers are greater than $ 2007,$ we acquire a new polynomial $ f(x).$ Find its degree and the coefficient of the term having the highest power. Find the degree of $ f(x) \equal{} (1 \minus{} x)(1 \minus{} x^{2})...(1 \minus{} x^{2007})$ $ (mod$ $ x^{2008}).$

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $\angle A,\angle B,\angle C <120^{\circ}$, $T$ is its [i]Fermat-Torricelli[/i] point.
Consider a point $P$ lying on the same plane with $\triangle ABC$. Prove that:
a)$$\dfrac{\overrightarrow {TA}}{TA}+\dfrac{\overrightarrow {TB}}{TB}+\dfrac{\overrightarrow {TC}}{TC}=\overrightarrow {0}.$$
b)$$PA + PB + PC \ge \frac{{\overrightarrow {PA} \overrightarrow {.TA} }}{{TA}} + \frac{{\overrightarrow {PB} .\overrightarrow {TB} }}{{TB}} + \frac{{\overrightarrow {PC} \overrightarrow {.TC} }}{{TC}}.$$
c)$$PA + PB + PC \ge TA + TB + TC$$and the equality occurs iff $P\equiv T$.

An equilateral triangle is given. A point lies on the incircle of this triangle. If the smallest two distances from the point to the sides of the triangle is $1$ and $4$, the sidelength of this equilateral triangle can be expressed as $\tfrac{a\sqrt b}c$ where $(a,c)=1$ and $b$ is not divisible by the square of an integer greater than $1$. Find $a+b+c$.

In a blackboard, it's written the following expression
$ 1-2-2^2-2^3-2^4-2^5-2^6-2^7-2^8-2^9-2^{10}$
We put parenthesis by different ways and then we calculate the result. For example:
$ 1-2-\left(2^2-2^3\right)-2^4-\left(2^5-2^6-2^7\right)-2^8-\left( 2^9-2^{10}\right)= 403$ and
$ 1-\left(2-2^2 \left(-2^3-2^4 \right)-\left(2^5-2^6-2^7\right)\right)- \left(2^8- 2^9 \right)-2^{10}= -933$
How many different results can we obtain?

Steve is piling $m\geq 1$ indistinguishable stones on the squares of an $n\times n$ grid. Each square can have an arbitrarily high pile of stones. After he finished piling his stones in some manner, he can then perform [i]stone moves[/i], defined as follows. Consider any four grid squares, which are corners of a rectangle, i.e. in positions $(i, k), (i, l), (j, k), (j, l)$ for some $1\leq i, j, k, l\leq n$, such that $i<j$ and $k<l$. A stone move consists of either removing one stone from each of $(i, k)$ and $(j, l)$ and moving them to $(i, l)$ and $(j, k)$ respectively, or removing one stone from each of $(i, l)$ and $(j, k)$ and moving them to $(i, k)$ and $(j, l)$ respectively.
Two ways of piling the stones are equivalent if they can be obtained from one another by a sequence of stone moves.
How many different non-equivalent ways can Steve pile the stones on the grid?

Alex and Kevin are radish watching. The probability that they will see a radish within the next hour is $\frac{1}{17}$. If the probability that they will see a radish within the next $15$ minutes is $p$, determine $\lfloor 1000p \rfloor$. Assume that the probability of seeing a radish at any given moment is uniform for the entire hour.

Two small, equal masses are attached by a lightweight rod. This object orbits a planet; the length of the rod is smaller than the radius of the orbit, but not negligible. The rod rotates about its axis in such a way that it remains vertical with respect to the planet. Is there a force in the rod? If so, tension or compression? Is the equlibrium stable, unstable, or neutral wrt small perturbations in the vertical angle of the rod?
(A) There is no force in the rod; the equilibrium is neutral.
(B) The rod is in tension; the equilibrium is stable.
(C) The rod is in compression; the equilibrium is stable.
(D) The rod is in tension; the equilibrium is unstable.
(E) The rod is in compression; the equilibrium is unstable.
