For a $\triangle ABC$ , let $A_1$ be the symmetric point of the intersection of angle bisector of $\angle BAC$ and $BC$ , where center of the symmetry is the midpoint of side $BC$, In the same way we define $B_1 $ ( on $AC$ ) and $C_1$ (on $AB$). Intersection of circumcircle of $\triangle A_1B_1C_1$ and line $AB$ is the set $\{Z,C_1 \}$, with $BC$ is the set $\{X,A_1\}$ and with $CA$ is the set $\{Y,B_1\}$. If the perpendicular lines from $X,Y,Z$ on $BC,CA$ and $ AB$ , respectively are concurrent , prove that $\triangle ABC$ is isosceles.

Let $m$ be a positive integer, and consider a $m\times m$ checkerboard consisting of unit squares. At the centre of some of these unit squares there is an ant. At time $0$, each ant starts moving with speed $1$ parallel to some edge of the checkerboard. When two ants moving in the opposite directions meet, they both turn $90^{\circ}$ clockwise and continue moving with speed $1$. When more than $2$ ants meet, or when two ants moving in perpendicular directions meet, the ants continue moving in the same direction as before they met. When an ant reaches one of the edges of the checkerboard, it falls off and will not re-appear. Considering all possible starting positions, determine the latest possible moment at which the last ant falls off the checkerboard, or prove that such a moment does not necessarily exist.

A sequence is called an [i]arithmetic progression of the first order[/i] if the differences of the successive terms are constant. It is called an [i]arithmetic progression of the second order[/i] if the differences of the successive terms form an arithmetic progression of the first order. In general, for $k\geq 2$, a sequence is called an [i]arithmetic progression of the $k$-th order[/i] if the differences of the successive terms form an arithmetic progression of the $(k-1)$-th order. The numbers \[4,6,13,27,50,84\] are the first six terms of an arithmetic progression of some order. What is its least possible order? Find a formula for the $n$-th term of this progression.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle. The line through $A$ tangent to the circumcircle of $ABC$ intersects line $BC$ at point $W$. Points $X,Y \neq A$ lie on lines $AC$ and $AB$, respectively, such that $WA=WX=WY$. Point $X_1$ lies on line $AB$ such that $\angle AXX_1 = 90^{\circ}$, and point $X_2$ lies on line $AC$ such that $\angle AX_1X_2 = 90^{\circ}$. Point $Y_1$ lies on line $AC$ such that $\angle AYY_1 = 90^{\circ}$, and point $Y_2$ lies on line $AB$ such that $\angle AY_1Y_2 = 90^{\circ}$. Let lines $AW$ and $XY$ intersect at point $Z$, and let point $P$ be the foot of the perpendicular from $A$ to line $X_2Y_2$. Let line $ZP$ intersect line $BC$ at $U$ and the perpendicular bisector of segment $BC$ at $V$. Suppose that $C$ lies between $B$ and $U$. Let $x$ be a positive real number.

There are 21 competitors with distinct skill levels numbered 1, 2,..., 21. They participate in a ping-pong tournament as follows. First, a random competitor is chosen to be "active", while the rest are "inactive." Every round, a random inactive competitor is chosen to play against the current active one. The player with the higher skill will win and become (or remain) active, while the loser will be eliminated from the tournament. The tournament lasts for 20 rounds, after which there will only be one player remaining. Alice is the competitor with skill 11. What is the expected number of games that she will get to play?
