Place 2005 points on the circumference of a circle. Two points $P,Q$ are said to form a pair of neighbours if the chord $PQ$ subtends an angle of at most 10 degrees at the centre. Find the smallest number of pairs of neighbours.

Given an infinite sequence of $0$'s and $1$'s and a fixed integer $k,$ suppose that there are no more than $k$ distinct blocks of $k$ consecutive terms. Show that the sequence is eventually periodic. (For example, the sequence $11011010101$ followed by alternating $0$'s and $1$'s indefinitely, which is periodic beginning with the fifth term.)

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with $AT, AS$ respectively are the internal, external angle bisector of $ABC$ and $T, S \in BC$. On the circle with diameter $TS$, take an arbitrary point $P$ that lies inside the triangle ABC. Denote $D, E, F, I$ as the incenter of triangle $PBC, PCA, PAB, ABC$. Prove that four lines $AD, BE, CF$ and $IP$ are concurrent.

An ice ballerina rotates at a constant angular velocity at one particular point. That is, she does not translationally move. Her arms are fully extended as she rotates. Her moment of inertia is $I$. Now, she pulls her arms in and her moment of inertia is now $\frac{7}{10}I$. What is the ratio of the new kinetic energy (arms in) to the initial kinetic energy (arms out)? $ \textbf {(A) } \dfrac {7}{10} \qquad \textbf {(B) } \dfrac {49}{100} \qquad \textbf {(C) } 1 \qquad \textbf {(C) } \dfrac {100}{49} \qquad \textbf {(E) } \dfrac {10}{7} $ [i]Problem proposed by Ahaan Rungta[/i]

Morteza and Amir Reza play the following game. First each of them independently roll a dice $100$ times in a row to construct a $100$-digit number with digits $1,2,3,4,5,6$ then they simultaneously shout a number from $1$ to $100$ and write down the corresponding digit to the number other person shouted in their $100$ digit number. If both of the players write down $6$ they both win otherwise they both loose. Do they have a strategy with wining chance more than $\frac{1}{36}$? [i]Proposed by Morteza Saghafian[/i]

a) On a circumference $8$ points are marked. We say that Juliana does an “T-operation ” if she chooses three of these points and paint the sides of the triangle that they determine, so that each painted triangle has at most one vertex in common with a painted triangle previously. What is the greatest number of “T-operations” that Juliana can do? b) If in part (a), instead of considering $8$ points, $7$ points are considered, what is the greatest number of “T operations” that Juliana can do?

Let $n$ be a positive integer. A sequence $(a, b, c)$ of $a, b, c \in \{1, 2, . . . , 2n\}$ is called [i]joke [/i] if its shortest term is odd and if only that smallest term, or no term, is repeated. For example, the sequences $(4, 5, 3)$ and $(3, 8, 3)$ are jokes, but $(3, 2, 7)$ and $(3, 8, 8)$ are not. Determine the number of joke sequences in terms of $n$.
