Circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ have radii $r_1<r_2$ respectively and intersect at distinct points $X$ and $Y$. The common external tangents intersect at point $Z$. The common tangent closer to $X$ touches $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ at $P$ and $Q$ respectively. Line $ZX$ intersects $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ again at points $R$ and $S$ and lines $RP$ and $SQ$ intersect again at point $T$. If $XT=8$, $XZ=15$, and $XY=12$, then what is $\tfrac{r_1}{r_2}$?

Let $ABCD$ be a convex quadrilateral such that $\vartriangle ABC$ is an equilateral triangle. Let $P$ be a point inside the quadrilateral such that $\vartriangle APD$ is an equilateral triangle and $\angle PCD = 30^o$. Suppose $CP = 6$ and $CD = 8$. The area of the triangle formed by $P$, the midpoint of $\overline{BC}$, and the midpoint of $\overline{AB}$ can be expressed in simplest radical form as $\frac{a+b\sqrt{c}}{d}$ , where $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ are positive integers with $gcd(a, b, d) = 1$ and with $c$ not divisible by the square of any prime. Compute $a + b + c + d$.

Sam's cup has a $400$ mL mixture of coffee and milk tea. He pours $200$ mL into Ben's empty cup. Ben then adds 100mL of co ee to his cup and stirs well. Finally, Ben pours $200$ mL out of his cup back into Sam's cup. If the mixture in Sam's cup is now $50\%$ milk tea, then how many milliliters of milk tea were in it originally?

In his spare time, Thomas likes making rectangular windows. He builds windows by taking four $30\text{ cm}\times20\text{ cm}$ rectangles of glass and arranging them in a larger rectangle in wood. The window has an $x\text{ cm}$ wide strip of wood between adjacent glass pieces and an $x\text{ cm}$ wide strip of wood between each glass piece and the adjacent edge of the window. Given that the total area of the glass is equivalent to the total area of the wood, what is $x$? [center]<see attached>[/center]

Consider a round table on which $2014$ people are seated. Suppose that the person at the head of the table receives a giant plate containing all the food for supper. He then serves himself and passes the plate either right or left with equal probability. Each person, upon receiving the plate, will serve himself if necessary and similarly pass the plate either left or right with equal probability. Compute the probability that you are served last if you are seated $2$ seats away from the person at the head of the table.
