In every cell of an $n\times n$ board is written $1$ or $-1$. At each step we may choose any of the $4n-2$ diagonals of the board and change the signs of all the numbers on that diagonal. Determine the number of initial configurations from which, after a finite number of steps, we may arrive at a configuration where all products of numbers on rows and columns equal to $1$.

2018 Taiwan TST Round 3, 1

Let $ p \geq 2$ be a prime number. Eduardo and Fernando play the following game making moves alternately: in each move, the current player chooses an index $i$ in the set $\{0,1,2,\ldots, p-1 \}$ that was not chosen before by either of the two players and then chooses an element $a_i$ from the set $\{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\}$. Eduardo has the first move. The game ends after all the indices have been chosen .Then the following number is computed: $$M=a_0+a_110+a_210^2+\cdots+a_{p-1}10^{p-1}= \sum_{i=0}^{p-1}a_i.10^i$$. The goal of Eduardo is to make $M$ divisible by $p$, and the goal of Fernando is to prevent this. Prove that Eduardo has a winning strategy. [i]Proposed by Amine Natik, Morocco[/i]

The vertices of a triangle have coordinates $(x_1,y_1)$, $(x_2,y_2)$ and $(x_3,y_3)$. For any integers $h$ and $k$, not both 0, both triangles whose vertices have coordinates $(x_1+h,y_1+k),(x_2+h,y_2+k)$ and $(x_3+h,y_3+k)$ has no common interior points with the original triangle. (a) Is it possible for the area of this triangle to be greater than $\tfrac{1}{2}$? (b) What is the maximum area of this triangle?

Let $ABC$ be a triangle, let $O$ be its circumcenter, and let $H$ be its orthocenter. Let $P$ be a point on the segment $OH$. Prove that $6r\leq PA+PB+PC\leq 3R$, where $r$ is the inradius and $R$ the circumradius of triangle $ABC$. [b]Moderator edit:[/b] This is true only if the point $P$ lies inside the triangle $ABC$. (Of course, this is always fulfilled if triangle $ABC$ is acute-angled, since in this case the segment $OH$ completely lies inside the triangle $ABC$; but if triangle $ABC$ is obtuse-angled, then the condition about $P$ lying inside the triangle $ABC$ is really necessary.)
