Let $ABC$ be an acute, non-isosceles triangle which is inscribed in a circle $(O)$. A point $I$ belongs to the segment $BC$. Denote by $H$ and $K$ the projections of $I$ on $AB$ and $AC$, respectively. Suppose that the line $HK$ intersects $(O)$ at $M, N$ ($H$ is between $M, K$ and $K$ is between $H, N$). Prove the following assertions:
a) If $A$ is the center of the circle $(IMN)$, then $BC$ is tangent to $(IMN)$.
b) If $I$ is the midpoint of $BC$, then $BC$ is equal to $4$ times of the distance between the centers of two circles $(ABK)$ and $(ACH)$.

[b]p1.[/b] If $n$ is a positive integer such that $2n+1 = 144169^2$, find two consecutive numbers whose squares add up to $n + 1$.
[b]p2.[/b] Katniss has an $n$-sided fair die which she rolls. If $n > 2$, she can either choose to let the value rolled be her score, or she can choose to roll a $n - 1$ sided fair die, continuing the process. What is the expected value of her score assuming Katniss starts with a $6$ sided die and plays to maximize this expected value?

[b]p5.[/b] Square $ABCD$ and rhombus $CDEF$ share a side. If $m\angle DCF = 36^o$, find the measure of $\angle AEC$.
[b]p6.[/b] Tom challenges Harry to a game. Tom first blindfolds Harry and begins to set up the game. Tom places $4$ quarters on an index card, one on each corner of the card. It is Harry’s job to flip all the coins either face-up or face-down using the following rules:
(a) Harry is allowed to flip as many coins as he wants during his turn.
(b) A turn consists of Harry flipping as many coins as he wants (while blindfolded). When he is happy with what he has flipped, Harry will ask Tom whether or not he was successful in flipping all the coins face-up or face-down. If yes, then Harry wins. If no, then Tom will take the index card back, rotate the card however he wants, and return it back to Harry, thus starting Harry’s next turn. Note that Tom cannot touch the coins after he initially places them before starting the game.
Assuming that Tom’s initial configuration of the coins weren’t all face-up or face-down, and assuming that Harry uses the most efficient algorithm, how many moves maximum will Harry need in order to win? Or will he never win?
PS. You had better use hide for answers.

Three points inside a rectangle determine a triangle. A fourth point is taken inside the triangle.
i) Prove at least one of the three concave quadrilaterals formed by these four points has perimeter lesser than that of the rectangle.
ii) Assuming the three points inside the rectangle are three corners of it, prove at least two of the three concave quadrilaterals formed by these four points have perimeters lesser than that of the rectangle.

Suppose we have two identical cardboard polygons. We placed one polygon upon the other one and aligned. Then we pierced polygons with a pin at a point. Then we turned one of the polygons around this pin by $25^o 30'$. It turned out that the polygons coincided (aligned again). What is the minimal possible number of sides of the polygons?
