Let $M$ be a point on the arc $AB$ of the circumcircle of the triangle $ABC$ which does not contain $C$. Suppose that the projections of $M$ onto the lines $AB$ and $BC$ lie on the sides themselves, not on their extensions. Denote these projections by $X$ and $Y$, respectively. Let $K$ and $N$ be the midpoints of $AC$ and $XY$, respectively. Prove that $\angle MNK=90^{\circ}$ .

A wooden cube, whose edges are one centimeter long, rests on a horizontal surface. Illuminated by a point source of light that is $x$ centimeters directly above an upper vertex, the cube casts a shadow on the horizontal surface. The area of the shadow, which does not inclued the area beneath the cube is 48 square centimeters. Find the greatest integer that does not exceed $1000x.$

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = 130$, $BC = 140$, $CA = 150$. Let $G$, $H$, $I$, $O$, $N$, $K$, $L$ be the centroid, orthocenter, incenter, circumenter, nine-point center, the symmedian point, and the de Longchamps point. Let $D$, $E$, $F$ be the feet of the altitudes of $A$, $B$, $C$ on the sides $\overline{BC}$, $\overline{CA}$, $\overline{AB}$. Let $X$, $Y$, $Z$ be the $A$, $B$, $C$ excenters and let $U$, $V$, $W$ denote the midpoints of $\overline{IX}$, $\overline{IY}$, $\overline{IZ}$ (i.e. the midpoints of the arcs of $(ABC)$.) Let $R$, $S$, $T$ denote the isogonal conjugates of the midpoints of $\overline{AD}$, $\overline{BE}$, $\overline{CF}$. Let $P$ and $Q$ denote the images of $G$ and $H$ under an inversion around the circumcircle of $ABC$ followed by a dilation at $O$ with factor $\frac 12$, and denote by $M$ the midpoint of $\overline{PQ}$. Then let $J$ be a point such that $JKLM$ is a parallelogram. Find the perimeter of the convex hull of the self-intersecting $17$-gon $LETSTRADEBITCOINS$ to the nearest integer. A diagram has been included but may not be to scale.

Given an equilateral triangle $ABC$ with sidelength 2, we consider all equilateral triangles $PQR$ with sidelength 1 such that
[list]
[*]$P$ lies on the side $AB$,
[*]$Q$ lies on the side $AC$, and
[*]$R$ lies in the inside or on the perimeter of $ABC$.[/list]
Find the locus of the centroids of all such triangles $PQR$.

Constant points $B$ and $C$ lie on the circle $\omega$. The point middle of $BC$ is named $M$ by us. Assume that $A$ is a variable point on the $\omega$ and $H$ is the orthocenter of the triangle $ABC$. From the point $H$ we drop a perpendicular line to $MH$ to intersect the lines $AB$ and $AC$ at $X$ and $Y$ respectively. Prove that with the movement of $A$ on the $\omega$, the orthocenter of the triangle $AXY$ also moves on a circle.

Two circles with radii 1 meet in points $X, Y$, and the distance between these points also is equal to $1$. Point $C$ lies on the first circle, and lines $CA, CB$ are tangents to the second one. These tangents meet the first circle for the second time in points $B', A'$. Lines $AA'$ and $BB'$ meet in point $Z$. Find angle $XZY$.
