According to the estimated number of participants who gave a correct solution, this was the hardest (!) problem from today's paper. So here is this great German killer - be warned! Given a circle k and three pairwisely distinct points A, B, C on this circle. Let h and g be the perpendiculars to the line BC at the points B and C. The perpendicular bisector of the segment AB meets the line h at a point F; the perpendicular bisector of the segment AC meets the line g at a point G. Prove that the product $BF\cdot CG$ is independent from the position of the point A, as long as the points B and C stay fixed. The actual problem behind the problem: Why on hell should the points B and C stay fixed? Darij

For example $113$ is strongly prime, since $113$, $131$, and $311$ are all prime numbers. Prove that there is no strongly prime number such that each of the digits $1, 3, 7$, and $9$ appears at least once in its decimal representation. [b]p4.[/b] Suppose $n$ is a positive integer. Let an be the number of permutations of $1, 2, . . . , n$, where $i$ is not in the $i$-th position, for all $i$ with $1 \le i \le n$. For example $a_3 = 2$, where the two permutations that are counted are $231$, and $312$. Let bn be the number of permutations of $1, 2, . . . , n$, where no $i$ is followed by $i + 1$, for all $i$ with $1 \le i \le n - 1$. For example $b_3 = 3$, where the three permutations that are counted are $132$, $213$, and $321$. For every $n \ge 1$, find (with proof) a simple formula for $\frac{a_{n+1}}{b_n}$. Your formula should not involve summations. Use your formula to evaluate $\frac{a_{2020}}{b_{2019}}$.
