Let us call a triangle rational if each of its angles is a rational number when measured in degrees. Let us call a point inside triangle rational if joining it to the three vertices of the triangle we get three rational triangles. Show that any acute rational triangle contains at least three distinct rational points.

A hexagonal table is given, as the one on the drawing, which has $~$ $2012$ $~$ columns. There are $~$ $2012$ $~$ hexagons in each of the odd columns, and there are $~$ $2013$ $~$ hexagons in each of the even columns. The number $~$ $i$ $~$ is written in each hexagon from the $~$ $i$-th column. Changing the numbers in the table is allowed in the following way: We arbitrarily select three adjacent hexagons, we rotate the numbers, and if the rotation is clockwise then the three numbers decrease by one, and if we rotate them counterclockwise the three numbers increase by one (see the drawing below). What's the maximum number of zeros that can be obtained in the table by using the above-defined steps.

We will assume that the sides of a square are reflective and we will designate them with the names of the four cardinal points. Marking a point on the side $N$ , determine in which direction a ray of light should exit (into the interior of the square) so that it returns to it after having undergone $n$ reflections on the side $E$ , another $n$ on the side $W$ , $m$ on the $S$ and $m - 1$ on the $N$, where $n$ and $m$ are known natural numbers. What happens if m and $n$ are not prime to each other? Calculate the length of the light ray considered as a function of $m$ and $n$, and of the length of the side of the square.

Sam colors each tile in a 4 by 4 grid white or black. A coloring is called [i]rotationally symmetric[/i] if the grid can be rotated 90, 180, or 270 degrees to achieve the same pattern. Two colorings are called [i]rotationally distinct[/i] if neither can be rotated to match the other. How many rotationally distinct ways are there for Sam to color the grid such that the colorings are [i]not[/i] rotationally symmetric? [i]Proposed by Gabriel Wu[/i]

A country has $n$ cities, labelled $1,2,3,\dots,n$. It wants to build exactly $n-1$ roads between certain pairs of cities so that every city is reachable from every other city via some sequence of roads.
