Given a triangle $ ABC $, $ AD $ is its angle bisector. Let $ E, F $ be the centers of the circles inscribed in the triangles $ ADC $ and $ ADB $, respectively. Denote by $ \omega $, the circle circumscribed around the triangle $ DEF $, and by $ Q $, the intersection point of $ BE $ and $ CF $, and $ H, J, K, M $ , respectively the second intersection point of the lines $ CE, CF, BE, BF $ with circle $ \omega $. Let $\omega_1, \omega_2 $ the circles be circumscribed around the triangles $ HQJ $ and $ KQM $ Prove that the intersection point of the circles $\omega_1, \omega_2 $ different from $ Q $ lies on the line $ AD $.

[b]p1.[/b] In their class Introduction to Ladders at Greendale Community College, Jan takes four tests. They realize that their test scores in chronological order form a strictly increasing arithmetic progression with integer terms, and that the average of those scores is an integer greater than or equal to $94$. How many possible combinations of test scores could they have had? (Test scores at Greendale range between $0$ and $100$, inclusive.) [b]p2.[/b] Suppose that $A$ and $B$ are digits between $1$ and $9$ such that $$0.\overline{ABABAB...}+ B \cdot (0.\overline{AAA...}) = A \cdot (0.\overline{B1B1B1...}) + 1$$ Find the sum of all possible values of $10A + B$. [b]p3.[/b] Let $ABC$ be an isosceles right triangle with $m\angle ABC = 90^o$. Let $D$ and $E$ lie on segments $\overline{AC}$ and $\overline{BC}$, respectively, such that triangles $\vartriangle ADB$ and $\vartriangle CDE$ are similar and $DE =EB$. If $\frac{AC}{AD} = 1 +\frac{\sqrt{a}}{b}$ with $a$, $b$ positive integers and $a$ squarefree, then find $a + b$. [b]p4.[/b] Five bowling pins $P_1, P_2, ..., P_5$ are lined up in a row. Each turn, Jemma picks a pin at random from the standing pins, and throws a bowling ball at that pin; that pin and each pin directly adjacent to it are knocked down. If the expected value of the number of turns Jemma will take to knock down all the pins is $\frac{a}{b}$ where $a$ and $b$ are relatively prime, find $a + b$. (Pins $P_i$ and $P_j$ are adjacent if and only if $|i - j| = 1$.) [b]p5.[/b] How many terms in the expansion of $$(1 + x + x^2 + x^3 +... + x^{2021})(1 + x^2 + x^4 + x^6 + ... + x^{4042})$$ have coeffcients equal to $1011$? [b]p6.[/b] Suppose $f(x)$ is a monic quadratic polynomial with distinct nonzero roots $p$ and $q$, and suppose $g(x)$ is a monic quadratic polynomial with roots $p + \frac{1}{q}$ and $q + \frac{1}{p}$ . If we are given that $g(-1) = 1$ and $f(0)\ne -1$, then there exists some real number $r$ that must be a root of $f(x)$. Find $r$. PS. You had better use hide for answers.

Given is a circular bus route with $n\geqslant2$ bus stops. The route can be frequented in both directions. The way between two stops is called [i]section[/i] and one of the bus stops is called [i]Zürich[/i]. A bus shall start at Zürich, pass through all the bus stops [b]at least once[/b] and drive along exactly $n+2$ sections before it returns to Zürich in the end. Assuming that the bus can chance directions at each bus stop, how many possible routes are there? EDIT: Sorry, there was a mistake...corrected now, thanks mavropnevma! :oops:
