Lines parallel to the sides of an equilateral triangle are drawn so that they cut each of the sides into $10$ equal segments and the triangle into $100$ congruent triangles. Each of these $100$ triangles is called a “cell”. Also lines parallel to each of the sides of the original triangle are drawn through each of the vertices of the original triangle. The cells between any two adjacent parallel lines form a “stripe”. What is the maximum number of cells that can be chosen so that no two chosen cells belong to one stripe? (R Zhenodarov)

Let $ABC$ be a triangle. Points $P$ and $Q$ lie on side $BC$ and satisfy $|BP| =|PQ| = |QC| = \frac13 |BC|$. Points $R$ and $S$ lie on side $CA$ and satisfy $|CR| =|RS| = |SA| = 1 3 |CA|$. Finally, points $T$ and $U$ lie on side $AB$ and satisfy $|AT| = |TU| = |UB| =\frac13 |AB|$. Points $P, Q,R, S, T$ and $U$ turn out to lie on a common circle. Prove that $ABC$ is an equilateral triangle.

A frog trainer places one frog at each vertex of an equilateral triangle $ABC$ of unit sidelength. The trainer can make one frog jump over another along the line joining the two, so that the total length of the jump is an even multiple of the distance between the two frogs just before the jump. Let $M$ and $N$ be two points on the rays $AB$ and $AC$, respectively, emanating from $A$, such that $AM = AN = \ell$, where $\ell$ is a positive integer. After a finite number of jumps, the three frogs all lie in the triangle $AMN$ (inside or on the boundary), and no more jumps are performed. Determine the number of final positions the three frogs may reach in the triangle $AMN$. (During the process, the frogs may leave the triangle $AMN$, only their nal positions are to be in that triangle.)

Let $ABC$ be a right triangle, with the right angle at $A$. The altitude from $A$ meets $BC$ at $H$ and $M$ is the midpoint of the hypotenuse $[BC]$.

If $N$ is the intersection point of the lines $AM$ and $PQ$, prove that the angles $\angle NHP$ and $\angle AHQ$ are equal. Miguel Ochoa Sanchez and Leonard Giugiuc
