In the right trapezoid $ABCD$ with $AB \parallel CD, \angle B = 90^o$ and $AB = 2DC$.
At points $A$ and $D$ there is therefore a part of the plane $(ABC)$ perpendicular to the plane of the trapezoid, on which the points $N$ and $P$ are taken, ($AP$ and $PD$ are perpendicular to the plane) such that $DN = a$ and $AP = \frac{a}{2}$ .

Ben picks a positive number $n$ less than $2017$ uniformly at random. Then Rex, starting with the number $ 1$, repeatedly multiplies his number by $n$ and then finds the remainder when dividing by $2017$. Rex does this until he gets back to the number $ 1$. What is the probability that, during this process, Rex reaches every positive number less than $2017$ before returning back to $ 1$?

Let $\bigtriangleup ABC$ be an acute triangle with a point $D$ on side $BC$. Let $J$ be a point on side $AC$ such that $\angle BAD = 2\angle ADJ$, and $\omega$ be the circumcircle of triangle $\bigtriangleup CDJ$. The line $AD$ intersects $\omega$ again at a point $P$, and $Q$ is the feet of the altitude from $J$ to $AB$.\\
Prove that if $JP = JQ$, then the line perpendicular to $DJ$ through $A$ is tangent to $\omega$.

A baker with access to a number of different spices bakes ten cakes. He uses more than half of the different kinds of spices in each cake, but no two of the combinations of spices are exactly the same. Show that there exist three spices $a,b,c$ such that every cake contains at least one of these.
2022 LMT Fall, 1 Tetris
Tetris is a Soviet block game developed in $1984$, probably to torture misbehaving middle school children. Nowadays, Tetris is a game that people play for fun, and we even have a mini-event featuring it, but it shall be used on this test for its original purpose. The $7$ Tetris pieces, which will be used in various problems in this theme, are as follows:

[b]p3.[/b] Jeff takes all $7$ different Tetris pieces and puts them next to each other to make a shape. Each piece has an area of $4$. Find the least possible perimeter of such a shape.
[b]p4.[/b] Qepsi is playing Tetris, but little does she know: the latest update has added realistic physics! She places two blocks, which form the shape below. Tetrominoes $ABCD$ and $EFGHI J$ are both formed from $4$ squares of side length $1$. Given that $CE = CF$, the distance from point $I$ to the line $AD$ can be expressed as $\frac{A\sqrt{B}-C}{D}$ . Find $1000000A+10000B +100C +D$.
