Luis' friends decided to play a prank on him in his geometry homework. They erased most of a triangle and, instead, drew an equivalent triangle with the sum of its three side lengths. Help Luis complete his homework by reconstructing the original triangle using only a straightedge and compass. Since Luis' method involves measurements, prove that his method results in a triangle longer than the sum of its three sides.

We are given an acute triangle $ABC$. Let $(w,I)$ be the inscribed circle of $ABC$, $(\Omega,O)$ be the circumscribed circle of $ABC$, and $A_0$ be the midpoint of altitude $AH$. $w$ touches $BC$ at point $D$. $A_0 D$ and $w$ intersect at point $P$, and the perpendicular from $I$ to $A_0 D$ intersects $BC$ at the point $M$. $MR$ and $MS$ lines touch $\Omega$ at $R$ and $S$ respectively [note: I am not entirely sure of what is meant by this, but I am pretty sure it means draw the tangents to $\Omega$ from $M$]. Prove that the points $R,P,D,S$ are concyclic.

Let two ants stand on the perimeter of a regular $2019$-gon of unit side length. One of them stands on a vertex and the other one is on the midpoint of the opposite side. They start walking along the perimeter at the same speed counterclockwise. The locus of their midpoints traces out a figure $P$ in the plane with $N$ corners. Let the area enclosed by the convex hull of $P$ be $\tfrac{A}{B}\tfrac{\sin^m\left(\tfrac{\pi}{4038}\right)}{\tan\left(\tfrac{\pi}{2019}\right)}$, where $A$ and $B$ are coprime positive integers, and $m$ is the smallest possible positive integer such that this formula holds. Find $A+B+m+N$.

[b]p1.[/b] Sarah needed a ride home to the farm from town. She telephoned for her father to come and get her with the pickup truck. Being eager to get home, she began walking toward the farm as soon as she hung up the phone. However, her father had to finish milking the cows, so could not leave to get her until fifteen minutes after she called. He drove rapidly to make up for lost time.
They met on the road, turned right around and drove back to the farm at two-thirds of the speed her father drove coming. They got to the farm two hours after she had called. She walked and he drove both ways at constant rates of speed.
How many minutes did she spend walking?

[b]p4.[/b] A six pound weight is attached to a four foot nylon cord that is looped over two pegs in the manner shown in the drawing. At $B$ the cord passes through a small loop in its end. The two pegs $A$ and $C$ are one foot apart and are on the same level. When the weight is released the system obtains an equilibrium position. Determine angle $ABC$ for this equilibrium position, and verify your answer. (Your verification should assume that friction and the weight of the cord are both negligible, and that the tension throughout the cord is a constant six pounds.)

[b]p5.[/b] The four corners of a rectangle have the property that when they are taken three at a time, they determine triangles all of which have the same perimeter. We will consider whether a set of five points can have this property.
Let $S = \{p_1, p_2, p_3, p_4, p_5\}$ be a set of five points. For each $i$ and $j$, let $d_{ij}$ denote the distance from $p_i$ to $p_j$. Suppose that $S$ has the property that all triangles with vertices in $S$ have the same perimeter.
(a) Prove that $d$ must be the same for every pair $(i,j)$ with $i \ne j$.
(b) Can such a five-element set be found in three dimensional space? Justify your answer.
