For a particular value of the angle $\theta$ we can take the product of the two complex numbers $(8+i)\sin\theta+(7+4i)\cos\theta$ and $(1+8i)\sin\theta+(4+7i)\cos\theta$ to get a complex number in the form $a+bi$ where $a$ and $b$ are real numbers. Find the largest value for $a+b$.

A rhombus with its incircle is given. At each vertex of the rhombus a circle is constructed that touches the incircle and two edges of the rhombus. These circles have radii $r_1,r_2$, while the incircle has radius $r$. Given that $r_1$ and $r_2$ are natural numbers and that $r_1r_2=r$, find $r_1,r_2,$ and $r$.

2009 IMAR Test, 4

Given any $n$ positive integers, and a sequence of $2^n$ integers (with terms among them), prove there exists a subsequence made of consecutive terms, such that the product of its terms is a perfect square. Also show that we cannot replace $2^n$ with any lower value (therefore $2^n$ is the threshold value for this property).

A jar was fi lled with jelly beans so that $54\%$ of the beans were red, $30\%$ of the beans were green, and $16\%$ of the beans were blue. Alan then removed the same number of red jelly beans and green jelly beans from the jar so that now $20\%$ of the jelly beans in the jar are blue. What percent of the jelly beans in the jar are now red?

$N$ cards are arranged in a circle, with exactly one card face up and the rest face-down. In a turn, choose a proper divisor $k$ of $N$. You may begin at any card on the circle and flip every $k$-th card, counting clockwise, if and only if every $k$-th card begins the turn in the same orientation (either all face-up or all face-down). For example, with $15$ cards, you may start at any position and flip the $3$rd, $6$th, $9$th, $12$th, and $15$th cards around the circle if they all begin the turn face up (or all face-down). For what values of $N$ can all of the cards be flipped face-up in a finite number of turns?

A quadrilateral $ABCD$ is inscribed in a circle with center $O$. Let $A_1 B_1 C_1 D_1$ be the image of $ABCD$ after rotation with center $O$ and angle $\alpha \in (0,90^\circ)$. The points $P,Q,R$ and $S$ are intersections of $AB$ and $A_1 B_1$, $BC$ and $B_1 C_1$, $CD$ and $C_1 D_1$, and $DA$ and $D_1 A_1$. Prove that $PQRS$ is a parallelogram.

There are $2n$ points on the plane, no three of which lie on the same line. Some segments are drawn between them so that they do not intersect at internal points and any segment with ends among the given points intersects some of the drawn segments at an internal point. Is it true that it is always possible to choose $n$ drawn segments having no common ends?

Two vertices of a cube are $A,O$ such that $AO$ is the diagonal of one its faces. A $n-$run is a sequence of $n+1$ vertices of the cube such that each $2$ consecutive vertices in the sequence are $2$ ends of one side of the cube. Is the $1386-$runs from $O$ to itself less than $1386-$runs from $O$ to $A$ or more than it?

Alice had picked positive integers $a, b, c$ and then tried to find positive integers $x, y, z$ such that $a = lcm (x, y)$, $b = lcm(x, z)$, $c = lcm(y, z)$. It so happened that such $x, y, z$ existed and were unique. Alice told this fact to Bob and also told him the numbers $a$ and $b$. Prove that Bob can find $c$. (Note: lcm = least common multiple.)

It is known that $ \angle BAC$ is the smallest angle in the triangle $ ABC$. The points $ B$ and $ C$ divide the circumcircle of the triangle into two arcs.
