Consider a set of $n > 3$ points in the plane, no three of which are collinear, and a natural number $k < n$. Prove the following statements: (a) If $k \le \frac{n}{2}$, then each point can be connected with at least k other points by segments so that no three segments form a triangle. (b) If $k \ge \frac{n}{2}$, and each point is connected with at least k other points by segments, then some three segments form a triangle.

We know that the function $ f: \left[ 0,\frac{\pi }{2}\right]\longrightarrow [a,b], f(x)=\sqrt[n]{\cos x } +\sqrt[n]{\sin x} , $ is surjective for a given natural number $ n\ge 2. $ Determine the numbers $ a,b, $ and the monotony of $ f. $

2025 Euler Olympiad, Round 2, 5

We are given an infinite row of cells extending infinitely in both directions. Some cells contain one or more stones. The total number of stones is finite. At each move, the player performs one of the following three operations: [b]1. [/b]Take three stones from some cell, and add one stone to the cells located one cell to the left and one cell to the right, each skipping one cell in between. [b]2. [/b]Take two stones from some cell, and add one stone to the cell one cell to the left, skipping one cell and one stone to the adjacent cell to the right. [b]3.[/b] Take one stone from each of two adjacent cells, and add one stone to the cell to the right of these two cells. The process ends when no moves are possible. Prove that the process always terminates and the final distribution of stones does not depend on the choices of moves made by the player.

The finite sets $A_1$, $A_2$, $\ldots$, $A_n$ are given and we denote by $d(n)$ the number of elements which appear exactly in an odd number of sets chosen from $A_1$, $A_2$, $\ldots$, $A_n$. Prove that for any $k$, $1\leq k\leq n$ the number \[{ d(n) - \sum\limits^n_{i=1} |A_i| + 2\sum\limits_{ i<j} |A_i \cap A_j | - \cdots + (-1)^k2^{k-1} \sum\limits_{i_1 <i_2 <\cdots < i_k} | A_{i_1} \cap A_{i_2} \cap \cdots \cap A_{i_k}}| \] is divisible by $2^k$.

Let $ABC$ be a fixed acute-angled triangle. Consider some points $E$ and $F$ lying on the sides $AC$ and $AB$, respectively, and let $M$ be the midpoint of $EF$ . Let the perpendicular bisector of $EF$ intersect the line $BC$ at $K$, and let the perpendicular bisector of $MK$ intersect the lines $AC$ and $AB$ at $S$ and $T$ , respectively. We call the pair $(E, F )$ $\textit{interesting}$, if the quadrilateral $KSAT$ is cyclic. Suppose that the pairs $(E_1 , F_1 )$ and $(E_2 , F_2 )$ are interesting. Prove that $\displaystyle\frac{E_1 E_2}{AB}=\frac{F_1 F_2}{AC}$ [i]Proposed by Ali Zamani, Iran[/i]

Board with dimesions $2018 \times 2018$ is divided in unit cells $1 \times 1$. In some cells of board are placed black chips and in some white chips (in every cell maximum is one chip). Firstly we remove all black chips from columns which contain white chips, and then we remove all white chips from rows which contain black chips. If $W$ is number of remaining white chips, and $B$ number of remaining black chips on board and $A=min\{W,B\}$, determine maximum of $A$
