Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with altitudes $AD$, $BE$, and $CF$, and let $O$ be the center of its circumcircle. Show that the segments $OA$, $OF$, $OB$, $OD$, $OC$, $OE$ dissect the triangle $ABC$ into three pairs of triangles that have equal areas.

In the figure, $\triangle ABC$ has $\angle A =45^{\circ}$ and $\angle B =30^{\circ}$. A line $DE$, with $D$ on $AB$ and $\angle ADE =60^{\circ}$, divides $\triangle ABC$ into two pieces of equal area. (Note: the figure may not be accurate; perhaps $E$ is on $CB$ instead of $AC$.) The ratio $\frac{AD}{AB}$ is

Let $x$ and $y$ be positive real numbers and $\theta$ an angle such that $\theta \neq \frac{\pi}{2}n$ for any integer $n$. Suppose
\[\frac{\sin\theta}{x}=\frac{\cos\theta}{y}\]
and
\[
\frac{\cos^4 \theta}{x^4}+\frac{\sin^4\theta}{y^4}=\frac{97\sin2\theta}{x^3y+y^3x}.
\]
Compute $\frac xy+\frac yx.$

Jerry recently returned from a trip to South America where he helped two old factories reduce pollution output by installing more modern scrubber equipment. Factory A previously filtered $80\%$ of pollutants and Factory B previously filled $72\%$ of pollutants. After installing the new scrubber system, both factories now filter $99.5\%$ of pollutants.
Jerry explains the level of pollution reduction to Michael, "Factory A is the much larger factory. It's four times as large as Factory B. Without any filters at all, it would pollute four times as much as Factory B. Even with the better pollution filtration system, Factory A was polluting nearly three times as much as Factory B."
Assuming the factories are the same in every way except size and previous percentage of pollution filtered, find $a+b$ where $a/b$ is the ratio in lowest terms of volume of pollutants unfiltered from both factories $\textit{after}$ installation of the new scrubber system to the volume of pollutants unfiltered from both factories $\textit{before}$ installation of the new scrubber system.

Given a triangle $ABC$, let $D$ be the midpoint of the side $AC$ and let $M$ be the point that divides the segment $BD$ in the ratio $1/2$; that is, $MB/MD=1/2$. The rays $AM$ and $CM$ meet the sides $BC$ and $AB$ at points $E$ and $F$, respectively. Assume the two rays perpendicular: $AM\perp CM$. Show that the quadrangle $AFED$ is cyclic if and only if the median from $A$ in triangle $ABC$ meets the line $EF$ at a point situated on the circle $ABC$.

Joe and JoAnn each bought 12 ounces of coffee in a 16-ounce cup. Joe drank 2 ounces of his coffee and then added 2 ounces of cream. JoAnn added 2 ounces of cream, stirred the coffee well, and then drank 2 ounces. What is the resulting ratio of the amount of cream in Joe's coffee to that in JoAnn's coffee?

$ \Delta ABC$ is a triangle such that $ AB \neq AC$. The incircle of $ \Delta ABC$ touches $ BC, CA, AB$ at $ D, E, F$ respectively. $ H$ is a point on the segment $ EF$ such that $ DH \bot EF$. Suppose $ AH \bot BC$, prove that $ H$ is the orthocentre of $ \Delta ABC$.
