Consider the points $O = (0,0), A = (- 2,0)$ and $B = (0,2)$ in the coordinate plane. Let $E$ and $F$ be the midpoints of $OA$ and $OB$ respectively. We rotate the triangle $OEF$ with a center in $O$ clockwise until we obtain the triangle $OE'F'$ and, for each rotated position, let $P = (x, y)$ be the intersection of the lines $AE'$ and $BF'$. Find the maximum possible value of the $y$-coordinate of $P$.
Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with orthocenter $H$ and circumcircle $\Omega$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of side $BC$. Point $D$ is chosen from the minor arc $BC$ on $\Gamma$ such that $\angle BAD = \angle MAC$. Let $E$ be a point on $\Gamma$ such that $DE$ is perpendicular to $AM$, and $F$ be a point on line $BC$ such that $DF$ is perpendicular to $BC$. Lines $HF$ and $AM$ intersect at point $N$, and point $R$ is the reflection point of $H$ with respect to $N$. Prove that $\angle AER + \angle DFR = 180^\circ$. [i]Proposed by Li4.[/i]

Given a right-angled triangle $ABC$ and two perpendicular lines $x$ and $y$ passing through the vertex $A$ of its right angle.

Find the locus of $Y$ (when $y_b$ and $y_c$ do not coincide).
Let $ P$ and $ Q$ be the common points of two circles. The ray with origin $ Q$ reflects from the first circle in points $ A_1$, $ A_2$,$ \ldots$ according to the rule ''the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection''. Another ray with origin $ Q$ reflects from the second circle in the points $ B_1$, $ B_2$,$ \ldots$ in the same manner. Points $ A_1$, $ B_1$ and $ P$ occurred to be collinear. Prove that all lines $ A_iB_i$ pass through P.
In triangle $ ABC$ we have $ \angle{ACB} \equal{} 2\angle{ABC}$ and there exists the point $ D$ inside the triangle such that $ AD \equal{} AC$ and $ DB \equal{} DC$. Prove that $ \angle{BAC} \equal{} 3\angle{BAD}$.
Given a triangle $ \triangle{ABC} $ with circumcircle $ \Omega $. Denote its incenter and $ A $-excenter by $ I, J $, respectively. Let $ T $ be the reflection of $ J $ w.r.t $ BC $ and $ P $ is the intersection of $ BC $ and $ AT $.

A convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ has an incircle. In each corner a circle is inscribed that also externally touches the two circles inscribed in the adjacent corners. Show that at least two circles have the same size.
Let $M$ be the set of the real numbers except for finitely many elements. Prove that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a polynomial $f(x)$ with $\deg f = n$, such that all the coefficients and the $n$ real roots of $f$ are all in $M$.
Square $ABCD$ in the coordinate plane has vertices at the points $A(1,1), B(-1,1), C(-1,-1),$ and $D(1,-1).$ Consider the following four transformations: [list=] [*]$L,$ a rotation of $90^{\circ}$ counterclockwise around the origin; [*]$R,$ a rotation of $90^{\circ}$ clockwise around the origin; [*]$H,$ a reflection across the $x$-axis; and [*]$V,$ a reflection across the $y$-axis. [/list] Each of these transformations maps the squares onto itself, but the positions of the labeled vertices will change. For example, applying $R$ and then $V$ would send the vertex $A$ at $(1,1)$ to $(-1,-1)$ and would send the vertex $B$ at $(-1,1)$ to itself. How many sequences of $20$ transformations chosen from $\{L, R, H, V\}$ will send all of the labeled vertices back to their original positions? (For example, $R, R, V, H$ is one sequence of $4$ transformations that will send the vertices back to their original positions.) $\textbf{(A)}\ 2^{37} \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 3\cdot 2^{36} \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 2^{38} \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 3\cdot 2^{37} \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 2^{39}$
The diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ meet at $O$. Let $S_1, S_2$ be the circumcircles of triangles $ABO$ and $CDO$ respectively, and $O,K$ their intersection points. The lines through $O$ parallel to $AB$ and $CD$ meet $S_1$ and $S_2$ again at $L$ and $M$, respectively. Points $P$ and $Q$ on segments $OL$ and $OM$ respectively are taken such that $OP : PL = MQ : QO$. Prove that $O,K, P,Q$ lie on a circle.
In some squares of a $2012\times 2012$ grid there are some beetles, such that no square contain more than one beetle. At one moment, all the beetles fly off the grid and then land on the grid again, also satisfying the condition that there is at most one beetle standing in each square. The vector from the centre of the square from which a beetle $B$ flies to the centre of the square on which it lands is called the [i]translation vector[/i] of beetle $B$. For all possible starting and ending configurations, find the maximum length of the sum of the [i]translation vectors[/i] of all beetles.
Let $ABC$ be a triangle and let $I$ and $O$ denote its incentre and circumcentre respectively. Let $\omega_A$ be the circle through $B$ and $C$ which is tangent to the incircle of the triangle $ABC$; the circles $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ are defined similarly. The circles $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ meet at a point $A'$ distinct from $A$; the points $B'$ and $C'$ are defined similarly. Prove that the lines $AA',BB'$ and $CC'$ are concurrent at a point on the line $IO$. [i](Russia) Fedor Ivlev[/i]
Let $G$ be the centroid of $\triangle ABC.$ A rotation $120^\circ$ clockwise about $G$ takes $B$ and $C$ to $B_1$ and $C_1$ respectively. A rotation $120^\circ$ counterclockwise about $G$ takes $B$ and $C$ to $B_2$ and $C_2$ respectively. Prove $\triangle AB_1C_2$ and $\triangle AB_2C_1$ are equilateral.

Prove that the point $Y$ symmetrical to $X$ with respect to line $PQ$ lies on the circumcircle of the $\triangle ABC$. [i]($5$ points)[/i]
The points $P$ and $Q$ lie on the diagonals $AC$ and $BD$, respectively, of a quadrilateral $ABCD$ such that $\frac{AP}{AC} + \frac{BQ}{BD} =1$. The line $PQ$ meets the sides $AD$ and $BC$ at points $M$ and $N$. Prove that the circumcircles of the triangles $AMP$, $BNQ$, $DMQ$, and $CNP$ are concurrent.
There is a set of $ n$ coins with distinct integer weights $ w_1, w_2, \ldots , w_n$. It is known that if any coin with weight $ w_k$, where $ 1 \leq k \leq n$, is removed from the set, the remaining coins can be split into two groups of the same weight. (The number of coins in the two groups can be different.) Find all $ n$ for which such a set of coins exists.
Two circles intersect at two points $A$ and $B$. A line $\ell$ which passes through the point $A$ meets the two circles again at the points $C$ and $D$, respectively. Let $M$ and $N$ be the midpoints of the arcs $BC$ and $BD$ (which do not contain the point $A$) on the respective circles. Let $K$ be the midpoint of the segment $CD$. Prove that $\measuredangle MKN = 90^{\circ}$.
Given a set of points in space, a [i]jump[/i] consists of taking two points, $P$ and $Q,$ and replacing $P$ with the reflection of $P$ over $Q$. Find the smallest number $n$ such that for any set of $n$ lattice points in $10$-dimensional-space, it is possible to perform a finite number of jumps so that some two points coincide.
