A convex quadrilateral has equal diagonals. An equilateral triangle is constructed on the outside of each side of the quadrilateral. The centers of the triangles on opposite sides are joined. Show that the two joining lines are perpendicular. [i]Alternative formulation.[/i] Given a convex quadrilateral $ ABCD$ with congruent diagonals $ AC \equal{} BD.$ Four regular triangles are errected externally on its sides. Prove that the segments joining the centroids of the triangles on the opposite sides are perpendicular to each other. [i]Original formulation:[/i] Let $ ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral such that $ AC \equal{} BD.$ Equilateral triangles are constructed on the sides of the quadrilateral. Let $ O_1,O_2,O_3,O_4$ be the centers of the triangles constructed on $ AB,BC,CD,DA$ respectively. Show that $ O_1O_3$ is perpendicular to $ O_2O_4.$

Let $a_1>a_2>a_3>\cdots$ be a sequence of real numbers which converges to 0. We put circles of radius $a_1$ into a unit square until no more can fit. (A previously laid circle must not be moved.) Then we put circles of radius $a_2$ in the remaining space until no more can fit, continuing the process for $a_3$,... What can the area covered by the circles be? a similar problem involving circles in a square: [url]https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c7h1979044[/url]

Suppose Alan, Michael, Kevin, Igor, and Big Rahul are in a running race. It is given that exactly one pair of people tie (for example, two people both get second place), so that no other pair of people end in the same position. Each competitor has equal skill; this means that each outcome of the race, given that exactly two people tie, is equally likely. The probability that Big Rahul gets first place (either by himself or he ties for first) can be expressed in the form $\tfrac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m+n$.

Eli, Joy, Paul, and Sam want to form a company; the company will have 16 shares to split among the $4$ people. The following constraints are imposed: $\bullet$ Every person must get a positive integer number of shares, and all $16$ shares must be given out. $\bullet$ No one person can have more shares than the other three people combined. Assuming that shares are indistinguishable, but people are distinguishable, in how many ways can the shares be given out?
