Olympiad problems

2017 Romania National Olympiad, 1

Prove the following: a) If $ABCA'B'C'$ is a right prism and $M \in (BC), N \in (CA), P \in (AB)$ such that $A'M, B'N$ and $C'P$ are perpendicular each other and concurrent, then the prism $ABCA'B'C'$ is regular. b) If $ABCA'B'C'$ is a regular prism and $\frac{AA'}{AB}=\frac{\sqrt6}{4}$ , then there are $M \in (BC), N \in (CA), P \in (AB)$ so that the lines $A'M, B'N$ and $C'P$ are perpendicular each other and concurrent.

The vertices of a convex pentagon $ABCDE$ lie on a circle $\gamma_1$. The diagonals $AC , CE, EB, BD$, and $DA$ are tangents to another circle $\gamma_2$ with the same centre as $\gamma_1$. (a) Show that all angles of the pentagon $ABCDE$ have the same size and that all edges of the pentagon have the same length. (b) What is the ratio of the radii of the circles $\gamma_1$ and $\gamma_2$? (The answer should be given in terms of integers, the four basic arithmetic operations and extraction of roots only.)

Let $m,n,k$ be pairwise relatively prime positive integers greater than $3$. Find the minimal possible number of points on the plane with the following property: there are $x$ of them which are the vertices of a regular $x$-gon for $x = m, x = n, x = k$. (E.Piryutko)

In each side of a regular polygon with $n$ sides, we choose a point different from the vertices and we obtain a new polygon of $n$ sides. For which values of $n$ can we obtain a polygon such that the internal angles are all equal but the polygon isn't regular?

The five sides of a regular pentagon are extended to lines $\ell_1, \ell_2, \ell_3, \ell_4$, and $\ell_5$. Denote by $d_i$ the distance from a point $P$ to $\ell_i$. For which point(s) in the interior of the pentagon is the product $d_1d_2d_3d_4d_5$ maximal?
