Olympiad problems

1964 Putnam, B2

Let $S$ be a set of $n>0$ elements, and let $A_1 , A_2 , \ldots A_k$ be a family of distinct subsets such that any two have a non-empty intersection. Assume that no other subset of $S$ intersects all of the $A_i.$ Prove that $ k=2^{n-1}.$

Ali wants to move from point $A$ to point $B$. He cannot walk inside the black areas but he is free to move in any direction inside the white areas (not only the grid lines but the whole plane). Help Ali to find the shortest path between $A$ and $B$. Only draw the path and write its length.

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: [img]https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JgvF_B-uRag/W1R4f4AXxTI/AAAAAAAAIzc/Fo3qu3pxXcoElk01RTYJYZNwj0plJaKPQCK4BGAYYCw/s640/igo%2B2015.el1.png[/img]

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $\angle A = 60^o$. The points $M,N,K$ lie on $BC,AC,AB$ respectively such that $BK = KM = MN = NC$. If $AN = 2AK$, find the values of $\angle B$ and $\angle C$. by Mahdi Etesami Fard

In the figure below, we know that $AB = CD$ and $BC = 2AD$. Prove that $\angle BAD = 30^o$. [img]https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IXi_8jSwzlU/W1R5IydV5uI/AAAAAAAAIzo/2sREnDEnLH8R9zmAZLCkVCGeMaeITX9YwCK4BGAYYCw/s400/IGO%2B2015.el3.png[/img]
