We have four wooden triangles with sides $3, 4, 5$ centimeters. How many convex polygons can we make by all of these triangles? (Just draw the polygons without any proof)
A convex polygon is a polygon which all of it's angles are less than $180^o$ and there isn't any hole in it. For example:

A car rides along a circular track in the clockwise direction. At noon Peter and Paul took their positions at two different points of the track. Some moment later they simultaneously ended their duties and compared their notes. The car passed each of them at least $30$ times. Peter noticed that each circle was passed by the car $1$ second faster than the preceding one while Paul’s observation was opposite: each circle was passed $1$ second slower than the preceding one.
Prove that their duty was at least an hour and a half long.

A cube is divided into $8$ smaller cubes of the same size, as shown in the figure. Then, each of these small cubes is divided again into $8$ smaller cubes of the same size. This process is done $4$ more times to each resulting cube. What is the ratio between the sum of the total areas of all the small cubes resulting from the last division and the total area of the initial cube?

[b]p7.[/b] Bryan is hitting the alphabet keys on his keyboard at random. If the probability he spells out ABMC at least once after hitting $6$ keys is $\frac{a}{b^c}$ , for positive integers $a$, $b$, $c$ where $b$, $c$ are both as small as possible, find $a+b+c$. Note that the letters ABMC must be adjacent for it to count: AEBMCC should not be considered as correctly spelling out ABMC.
[b]p8.[/b] It takes a Daniel twenty minutes to change a light bulb. It takes a Raymond thirty minutes to change a light bulb. It takes a Bryan forty-five minutes to change a light bulb.

[b]p11.[/b] Joe has lost his $2$ sets of keys. However, he knows that he placed his keys in one of his $12$ mailboxes, each labeled with a different positive integer from $1$ to $12$. Joe plans on opening the $2$ mailbox labeled $1$ to see if any of his keys are there. However, a strong gust of wind blows by, opening mailboxes $11$ and $12$, revealing that they are empty. If Joe decides to open one of the mailboxes labeled $2$, $3$, $4$, $5$, $6$, $7$, $8$, $9$ , or $10$, the probability that he finds at least one of his sets of keys can be expressed as $\frac{a}{b}$, where a and b are relatively prime positive integers. Find the sum $a + b$. Note that a single mailbox can contain $0$, $1$, or $2$ sets of keys, and the mailboxes his sets of keys were placed in are determined independently at random.
[b]p12.[/b] As we all know, the top scientists have recently proved that the Earth is a flat disc. Bob is standing on Earth. If he takes the shortest path to the edge, he will fall off after walking $1$ meter.

[b]p14.[/b] An ant is crawling along the edges of a sugar cube. Every second, it travels along an edge to another adjacent vertex randomly, interested in the sugar it notices. Unfortunately, the cube is about to be added to some scalding coffee! In $10$ seconds, it must return to its initial vertex, so it can get off and escape. If the probability the ant will avoid a tragic doom can be expressed as $\frac{a}{3^{10}}$ , where $a$ is a positive integer, find $a$.
Clarification: The ant needs to be on its initial vertex in exactly $10$ seconds, no more or less.
[b]p15.[/b] Raymond’s new My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Collector’s book arrived in the mail! The book’s pages measure $4\sqrt3$ inches by $12$ inches, and are bound on the longer side. If Raymond keeps one corner in the same plane as the book, what is the total area one of the corners can travel without ripping the page? If the desired area in square inches is $a\pi+b\sqrt{c}$ where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is squarefree, find $a + b + c$.

One day Joshua and Alexis find their sister Wendy's copy of the $2007$ iTest. They decide to see if they can work any of the problems and are proud to find that indeed they are able to work some of them, but their middle school math team experience is still not enough to help with the harder problems.
Alexis comes across a problem she really likes, partly because she has never worked one like it before:
\[\text{What is the smallest positive integer }k\text{ such that the number}\binom{2k}k\text{ ends in two zeroes?}\]
Joshua is the kind of mathematical explorer who likes to alter problems, make them harder, or generalize them. So, he proposes the following problem to his sister Alexis:
\[\text{What is the smallest positive integer }k\text{ such that the number}\binom{2k}k\text{ ends }\text{in two zeroes when expressed in base 12?}\]
Alexis solves the problem correctly. What is her answer (expressed in base $10$)?
