Let $ABCD$ be a parallelogram with $\angle DAB < 90$ Let $E$ be the point on the line $BC$ such that $AE = AB$ and let $F$ be the point on the line $CD$ such that $AF = AD$. The circumcircle of the triangle $CEF$ intersects the line $AE$ again in $P$ and the line $AF$ again in $Q$. Let $X$ be the reflection of $P$ over the line $DE$ and $Y$ the reflection of $Q$ over the line $BF$. Prove that $A, X, Y$ lie on the same line.

There are $n$ cells with indices from $1$ to $n$. Originally, in each cell, there is a card with the corresponding index on it. Vasya shifts the card such that in the $i$-th cell is now a card with the number $a_i$. Petya can swap any two cards with the numbers $x$ and $y$, but he must pay $2|x-y|$ coins. Show that Petya can return all the cards to their original position, not paying more than $|a_1-1|+|a_2-2|+\ldots +|a_n-n|$ coins.

Let $n,k$ be positive integers so that $n \ge k$.Find the maximum number of binary sequances of length $n$ so that fixing any arbitary $k$ bits they do not produce all binary sequances of length $k$.For exmple if $k=1$ we can only have one sequance otherwise they will differ in at least one bit which means that bit produces all binary sequances of length $1$.

A, B and C are three persons among a set P of n (n[u]>[/u]3) persons. It is known that A, B and C are friends of one another, and that every one of the three persons has already made friends with more than half the total number of people in P. Given that every three persons who are friends of one another form a [i]friendly group[/i], what is the minimum number of friendly groups that may exist in P?

For which non-negative integers $ a<2007$ the congruence $ x^2\plus{}a \equiv 0 \mod 2007$ has got exactly two different non-negative integer solutions? That means, that there exist exactly two different non-negative integers $ u$ and $ v$ less than $ 2007$, such that $ u^2\plus{}a$ and $ v^2\plus{}a$ are both divisible by $ 2007$.
