We say that a pile is a set of four or more nuts. Two persons play the following game. They start with one pile of $n \geq 4$ nuts. During a move a player takes one of the piles that they have and split it into two nonempty sets (these sets are not necessarily piles, they can contain arbitrary number of nuts). If the player cannot move, he loses. For which values of $n$ does the first player have a winning strategy?

In the figure, triangle $ADE$ is produced from triangle $ABC$ by a rotation by $90^o$ about the point $A$. If angle $D$ is $60^o$ and angle $E$ is $40^o$, how large is then angle $u$?

Consider a piece of material in the shape of a right circular conical frustum with radii $R,r,R>r$. A cavity in the shape of another coaxial right circular conical frustum was drilled into the material (see the picture). That way only half of the original volume of material remained. Compute radii $R',r'$ of the cavity. Decide for which ratio $R/r$ the problem has a solution.

A $2^{2014} + 1$ by $2^{2014} + 1$ grid has some black squares filled. The filled black squares form one or more snakes on the plane, each of whose heads splits at some points but never comes back together. In other words, for every positive integer $n$ greater than $2$, there do not exist pairwise distinct black squares $s_1$, $s_2$, \dots, $s_n$ such that $s_i$ and $s_{i+1}$ share an edge for $i=1,2, \dots, n$ (here $s_{n+1}=s_1$). What is the maximum possible number of filled black squares? [i]Proposed by David Yang[/i]

In a triangle $ABC$, the incircle touches the sides $BC, CA, AB$ in the points $A',B', C'$, respectively; the excircle in the angle $A$ touches the lines containing these sides in $A_1,B_1, C_1$, and similarly, the excircles in the angles $B$ and $C$ touch these lines in $A_2,B_2, C_2$ and $A_3,B_3, C_3$. Prove that the triangle $ABC$ is right-angled if and only if one of the point triples $(A',B_3, C'),$ $ (A_3,B', C_3), (A',B', C_2), (A_2,B_2, C'), (A_2,B_1, C_2), (A_3,B_3, C_1),$ $ (A_1,B_2, C_1), (A_1,B_1, C_3)$ is collinear.

We have four white equilateral triangles of $3$ cm on each side and join them by their sides to obtain a triangular base pyramid. At each edge of the pyramid we mark two red dots that divide it into three equal parts. Number the red dots, so that when you scroll them in the order they were numbered, result a path with the smallest possible perimeter. How much does that path measure?

Triangle $ABC$ with it's circumcircle $\Gamma$ is given. Points $D$ and $E$ are chosen on segment $BC$ such that $\angle BAD=\angle CAE$. The circle $\omega$ is tangent to $AD$ at $A$ with it's circumcenter lies on $\Gamma$. Reflection of $A$ through $BC$ is $A'$. If the line $A'E$ meet $\omega$ at $L$ and $K$.

Consider $2n$ points in the plane. Two players $A$ and $B$ alternately choose a point on each move. After $2n$ moves, there are no points left to choose from and the game ends. Add up all the distances between the points chosen by $A$ and add up all the distances between the points chosen by $B$. The one with the highest sum wins. If $A$ starts the game, describe the winner's strategy. Clarification: Consider that all the partial sums of distances between points give different numbers.

Given are two fixed lines that meet at a point $O$ and form an acute angle with measure $\alpha$. Let $P$ be a fixed point, internal for the angle.

Given a convex, $n$-sided polygon $P$, form a $2n$-sided polygon $\text{clip}(P)$ by cutting off each corner of $P$ at the edges' trisection points. In other words, $\text{clip}(P)$ is the polygon whose vertices are the $2n$ edge trisection points of $P$, connected in order around the boundary of $P$. Let $P_1$ be an isosceles trapezoid with side lengths $13,13,13,$ and $3$, and for each $i\geq 2$, let $P_i=\text{clip}(P_{i-1}).$ This iterative clipping process approaches a limiting shape $P_\infty=\lim_{i\to\infty}P_i$. If the difference of the areas of $P_{10}$ and $P_\infty$ is written as a fraction $\tfrac xy$ in lowest terms, calculate the number of positive integer factors of $x\cdot y$.
