1961 IMO Shortlist, 6

Consider a plane $\epsilon$ and three non-collinear points $A,B,C$ on the same side of $\epsilon$; suppose the plane determined by these three points is not parallel to $\epsilon$. In plane $\epsilon$ take three arbitrary points $A',B',C'$. Let $L,M,N$ be the midpoints of segments $AA', BB', CC'$; Let $G$ be the centroid of the triangle $LMN$. (We will not consider positions of the points $A', B', C'$ such that the points $L,M,N$ do not form a triangle.) What is the locus of point $G$ as $A', B', C'$ range independently over the plane $\epsilon$?

Unit square $ABCD$ is drawn on a plane. Point $O$ is drawn outside of $ABCD$ such that lines $AO$ and $BO$ are perpendicular. Square $F ROG$ is drawn with $F$ on $AB$ such that $AF =\frac23$, $R$ is on $\overline{BO}$, and $G$ is on $\overline{AO}$. Extend segment $\overline{OF}$ past $\overline{AB}$ to intersect side $\overline{CD}$ at $E$. Compute $DE$.

Let $A_1A_2A_3A_4A_5A_6$ be a convex hexagon such that $A_iA_{i+2} \parallel A_{i+3}A_{i+5}$ for $i = 1, 2, 3$ (we take $A_{i+6} = A_i$ for each $i$). Segment $A_iA_{i+2}$ intersects segment $A_{i+1}A_{i+3}$ at $B_i$, for $1 \le i \le 6$, as shown. Furthermore, suppose that $\vartriangle A_1A_3A_5 \cong \vartriangle A_4A_6A_2$. Given that $[A_1B_5B_6] = 1$, $[A_2B_6B_1] = 4$, and $[A_3B_1B_2] = 9$ (by $[XY Z]$ we mean the area of $ \vartriangle XY Z$), determine the area of hexagon $B_1B_2B_3B_4B_5B_6$.

Squares of an $8 \times 8$ chessboard are each allocated a number between $1$ and $32$ , with each number being used twice. Prove that it is possible to choose $32$ such squares, each allocated a different number, so that there is at least one such square on each row or column . (A . Andjans, Riga

1997 Baltic Way, 8

If we add $1996$ to $1997$, we first add the unit digits $6$ and $7$. Obtaining $13$, we write down $3$ and “carry” $1$ to the next column. Thus we make a carry. Continuing, we see that we are to make three carries in total. Does there exist a positive integer $k$ such that adding $1996\cdot k$ to $1997\cdot k$ no carry arises during the whole calculation?

(i) Show that $|P|\le m(P)$, with equality if and only if $\min(P)>|P|$. (ii) Show that $m(P)<(|P|+1)(2^{|P|}-1)$. (The number $|P|$ is the size of set $P$) [i]Dan Schwarz, Romania[/i]

Let two glasses, numbered $1$ and $2$, contain an equal quantity of liquid, milk in glass $1$ and coffee in glass $2$. One does the following: Take one spoon of mixture from glass $1$ and pour it into glass $2$, and then take the same spoon of the new mixture from glass $2$ and pour it back into the first glass. What happens after this operation is repeated $n$ times, and what as $n$ tends to infinity?

p1. Given the set $H = \{(x, y)|(x -y)^2 + x^2 - 15x + 50 = 0$ where x and y are natural numbers $\}$. Find the number of subsets of $H$. p2. A magician claims to be an expert at guessing minds with following show. One of the viewers was initially asked to hidden write a five-digit number, then subtract it with the sum of the digits that make up the number, then name four of the five digits that make up the resulting number (in order of any). Then the magician can guess the numbers hidden. For example, if the audience mentions four numbers result: $0, 1, 2, 3$, then the magician will know that the hidden number is $3$. a. Give an example of your own from the above process. b. Explain mathematically the general form of the process. p3. In a fruit basket there are $20$ apples, $18$ oranges, $16$ mangoes, $10$ pineapples and $6$ papayas. If someone wants to take $10$ pieces from the basket. After that, how many possible compositions of fruit are drawn? p4. Inside the Equator Park, a pyramid-shaped building will be made with base of an equilateral triangle made of translucent material with a side length of the base $8\sqrt3$ m long and $8$ m high. A globe will be placed in a pyramid the. Ignoring the thickness of the pyramidal material, determine the greatest possible length of the radius of the globe that can be made. p5.
