Three ants are at three corners of a rectangle. It is assumed that each ant moves only when the other two are stopped and always parallel to the line defined by them. Will be is it possible that the three ants are simultaneously at midpoints on the sides of the rectangle?
Problems 7, 8 and 9 are about these kites.
To promote her school's annual Kite Olympics, Genevieve makes a small kite and a large kite for a bulletin board display. The kites look like the one in the diagram. For her small kite Genevieve draws the kite on a one-inch grid. For the large kite she triples both the height and width of the entire grid.

A semicircle with diameter $d$ is contained in a square whose sides have length $8$. Given the maximum value of $d$ is $m- \sqrt{n}$, find $m+n$.
Given $2009 \times 4018$ rectangular board. Frame is a rectangle $n \times n$ or $n \times(n + 2)$ for $ ( n \geq 3 )$ without all cells which don’t have any common points with boundary of rectangle. Rectangles $1\times1,1\times 2,1\times 3$ and $ 2\times 4$ are also frames. Two players by turn paint all cells of some frame that has no painted cells yet. Player that can't make such move loses. Who has a winning strategy?
A $5\times5$ grid of squares is filled with integers. Call a rectangle [i]corner-odd[/i] if its sides are grid lines and the sum of the integers in its four corners is an odd number. What is the maximum possible number of corner-odd rectangles within the grid?
Note: A rectangles must have four distinct corners to be considered [i]corner-odd[/i]; i.e. no $1\times k$ rectangle can be [i]corner-odd[/i] for any positive integer $k$.
This is the one with the 8 circles?
I made each circle into the square in which the circle is inscribed, then calculated it with that. It got the right answer but I don't think that my method is truly valid...

Given a matrix $\{a_{ij}\}_{i,j=0}^{9}$, $a_{ij}=10i+j+1$. Andrei is going to cover its entries by $50$ rectangles $1\times 2$ (each such rectangle contains two adjacent entries) so that the sum of $50$ products in these rectangles is minimal possible. Help him.

Given an infinite sheet of square ruled paper. Some of the squares contain a piece. A move consists of a piece jumping over a piece on a neighbouring square (which shares a side) onto an empty square and removing the piece jumped over. Initially, there are no pieces except in an $m x n$ rectangle ($m, n > 1$) which has a piece on each square. What is the smallest number of pieces that can be left after a series of moves?
A circle of radius $ r$ is concentric with and outside a regular hexagon of side length 2. The probability that three entire sides of hexagon are visible from a randomly chosen point on the circle is 1/2. What is $ r$?
