Square $ABCD$ in the coordinate plane has vertices at the points $A(1,1), B(-1,1), C(-1,-1),$ and $D(1,-1).$ Consider the following four transformations:
[list=]
[*]$L,$ a rotation of $90^{\circ}$ counterclockwise around the origin;
[*]$R,$ a rotation of $90^{\circ}$ clockwise around the origin;
[*]$H,$ a reflection across the $x$-axis; and
[*]$V,$ a reflection across the $y$-axis.
[/list]
Each of these transformations maps the squares onto itself, but the positions of the labeled vertices will change. For example, applying $R$ and then $V$ would send the vertex $A$ at $(1,1)$ to $(-1,-1)$ and would send the vertex $B$ at $(-1,1)$ to itself. How many sequences of $20$ transformations chosen from $\{L, R, H, V\}$ will send all of the labeled vertices back to their original positions? (For example, $R, R, V, H$ is one sequence of $4$ transformations that will send the vertices back to their original positions.)

Let $\Omega$ be a circle with center $O$. Let $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ be circles with centers $O_1$ and $O_2$, respectively, internally tangent to $\Omega$ at points $A$ and $B$, respectively, such that $O_1$ is on $\overline{OA}$, and $O_2$ is on $\overline{OB}$ and $\omega_1$. There exists a point $P$ on line $AB$ such that $P$ is on both $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$. Let the external tangent of $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ on the same side of line $AB$ as $O$ hit $\omega_1$ at $X$ and $\omega_2$ at $Y$, and let lines $AX$ and $BY$ intersect at $N$. Given that $O_1X = 81$ and $O_2Y = 18$, the value of $NX \cdot NA$ can be written as $a\sqrt{b} + c$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are positive integers, and $b$ is not divisible by the square of a prime. Find $a+b+c$.

Three circles $\Gamma_A$, $\Gamma_B$ and $\Gamma_C$ share a common point of intersection $O$. The other common point of $\Gamma_A$ and $\Gamma_B$ is $C$, that of $\Gamma_A$ and $\Gamma_C$ is $B$, and that of $\Gamma_C$ and $\Gamma_B$ is $A$.

A variable tangent $t$ to the circle $C_1$, of radius $r_1$, intersects the circle $C_2$, of radius $r_2$ in $A$ and $B$. The tangents to $C_2$ through $A$ and $B$ intersect in $P$.

[b]Note[/b]: A hyperbola is said to be [i]equilateral[/i] if its asymptotes are perpendicular.

On the market one seller is selling watermelons, melons and young corn cobs. Total number of watermelons, melons and corn cobs is $239$. One buyer bought $\frac{2}{3}$ of all watermelons, $\frac{3}{5}$ of all melons and $\frac{5}{7}$ of all corn cobs. Other buyer bought $\frac{1}{13}$ of all watermelons, $\frac{1}{4}$ of all melons and $\frac{1}{5}$ of all corn cobs. How many pieces in total bought second buyer and how many seller had at the beggining of each watermelons, melons and corn cobs?

Let \(n\) be a positive integer. The kingdom of Zoomtopia is a convex polygon with integer sides, perimeter \(6n\), and \(60^\circ\) rotational symmetry (that is, there is a point \(O\) such that a \(60^\circ\) rotation about \(O\) maps the polygon to itself). In light of the pandemic, the government of Zoomtopia would like to relocate its \(3n^2+3n+1\) citizens at \(3n^2+3n+1\) points in the kingdom so that every two citizens have a distance of at least \(1\) for proper social distancing. Prove that this is possible. (The kingdom is assumed to contain its boundary.)

For a complex number $ z\equal{}x\plus{}iy$ we denote by $ P(z)$ the corresponding point $ (x,y)$ in the plane. Suppose $ z_1,z_2,z_3,z_4,z_5,\alpha$ are nonzero complex numbers such that:
$ (i)$ $ P(z_1),...,P(z_5)$ are vertices of a complex pentagon $ Q$ containing the origin $ O$ in its interior, and
$ (ii)$ $ P(\alpha z_1),...,P(\alpha z_5)$ are all inside $ Q$.
If $ \alpha\equal{}p\plus{}iq$ $ (p,q \in \mathbb{R})$, prove that $ p^2\plus{}q^2 \le 1$ and $ p\plus{}q \tan \frac{\pi}{5} \le 1$.

Dilhan has objects of $3$ types, $A$, $B$, and $C$, and $6$ functions $$f_{A,B},f_{A,C},f_{B,A},f_{B,C},f_{C,A},f_{C,B}$$where $f_{X,Y}$ takes in an object of type $X$ and outputs an object of type $Y$. Dilhan wants to compose his $6$ functions, without repeats, such that the resulting expression is well-typed, meaning an object can be taken in by the first function, and the resulting output can then be taken in by the second function, and so on. In how many orders can he compose his $6$ functions, satisfying this constraint?
