Suppose that $x,y,z$ are positive real numbers that satisfy
\begin{align*}
x+y+z&=xyz\\
\frac{x^2}{16(1+x^2)}=\frac{y^2}{25(1+y^2)}&=\frac{z^2}{36(1+z^2)}.
\end{align*}
Compute
$$\frac{x^2(1+x^2)^2}{x^2(1+z^2)^2}.$$

Let $ABCDEF$ be a regular hexagon, and let $G$, $H$, $I$, $J$, $K$, and $L$ be the midpoints of sides $AB$, $BC$, $CD$, $DE$, $EF$, and $FA$, respectively. The intersection of lines $\overline{AH}$, $\overline{BI}$, $\overline{CJ}$, $\overline{DK}$, $\overline{EL}$, and $\overline{FG}$ bound a smaller regular hexagon. Find the ratio of the area of the smaller hexagon to the area of $ABCDEF$.

There are $2$ ways to write $2020$ as a sum of $2$ squares: $2020 = a^2 + b^2$ and $2020 = c^2 + d^2$, where $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ are distinct positive integers with $a < b$ and $c < d$. Compute $a+b+c+d$.

A point is "bouncing" inside a unit equilateral triangle with vertices $(0,0)$, $(1,0)$, and $(1/2,\sqrt{3}/2)$. The point moves in straight lines inside the triangle and bounces elastically off an edge at an angle equal to the angle of incidence. Suppose that the point starts at the origin and begins motion in the direction of $(1,1)$. After the ball has traveled a cumulative distance of $30\sqrt{2}$, compute its distance from the origin.

Eddy and Moor play a game with the following rules:
[list=a]
[*] The game begins with a pile of $N$ stones, where $N$ is a positive integer. [/*]
[*] The $2$ players alternate taking turns (e.g. Eddy moves, then Moor moves, then Eddy moves, and so on). [/*]
[*] During a player's turn, given $a$ stones remaining in the pile, the player may remove $b$ stones from the pile, where $\gcd(a,b)=1$ and $b\leq a$. [/*]
[*] If a player cannot make a move, they lose. [/*]
[/list]
For example, if Eddy goes first and $N=4$, then Eddy can remove $3$ stones from the pile (since $3\leq4$ and $\gcd(3,4)=1$), leaving $1$ stone in the pile. Moor can then remove $1$ stone from the pile (since $1\leq1$ and $\gcd(1,1)=1$), leaving $0$ stones in the pile. Since Eddy cannot remove stones from an empty pile, he cannot make a move, and therefore loses.
Both Eddy and Moor want to win, so they will both always make the best possible move. If Eddy moves first, for how many values of $N<2016$ can Eddy win no matter what moves Moor chooses?

$\vartriangle ABC$ is right with $\angle C = 90^o$. The internal angle bisectors of $\angle A$ and $\angle B$ meet at point $D$, while the external angle bisectors of $\angle A$ and $\angle B$ meet at point $E$. Suppose that $AD = 1$ and $BD = 2$. The value of $DE^2$ can be expressed as $x+y \sqrt{z}$ for integers $x$, $y$, and $z$, where $z$ is greater than $1$ and not divisible by the square of any prime. Compute $100x + 10y + z$.
Note: For a generic triangle $\vartriangle PQR$, if we let $Q'$ be the reflection of $Q$ over $P$, then the external angle bisector of $\angle P$ is the line that contains the internal angle bisector of $\angle Q'PR$.

For nonzero integers $n$, let $f(n)$ be the sum of all positive integers $b$ for which all solutions $x$ to $x^2 +bx+n = 0$ are integers, and let $g(n)$ be the sum of all positive integers $c$ for which all solutions $x$ to $cx + n = 0$ are integers. Compute $\sum^{2020}_{n=1} (f(n) - g(n))$.

Alex scans the list of integers between $1$ and $2020$ inclusive using the following algorithm. First, he reads off perfect squares between $1$ and $2020$ in ascending order and removes these numbers from the list. Next, he reads off numbers now at perfect square indices in ascending order, which are $2$, $6$, $12$, $...$, and removes these numbers from the list. He repeats this algorithm until he reads off $2020$, which is the nth number he has read o so far. Compute $n$.
