Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB=5$, $AC=12$ and incenter $I$. Let $P$ be the intersection of $AI$ and $BC$. Define $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ to be the circumcircles of $ABP$ and $ACP$, respectively, with centers $O_B$ and $O_C$. If the reflection of $BC$ over $AI$ intersects $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ at $X$ and $Y$, respectively, then $\frac{O_BO_C}{XY}=\frac{PI}{IA}$. Compute $BC$.

Find $p+r$ if $p$ and $q$ are primes and $r$ is an integer such that \[ \left( r^2 + pr + 1 \right) \cdot \left( r^2 + \left( p^2 - q \right) r - p \right) = pq. \]

Suppose that the real numbers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_{100}$ satisfy
\begin{eqnarray*} 0 \leq a_{100} \leq a_{99} \leq \cdots \leq a_2 &\leq& a_1 , \\ a_1+a_2 & \leq & 100 \\ a_3+a_4+\cdots+a_{100} &\leq & 100. \end{eqnarray*}
Determine the maximum possible value of $a_1^2 + a_2^2 + \cdots + a_{100}^2$, and find all possible sequences $a_1, a_2, \ldots , a_{100}$ which achieve this maximum.

In Duckville there is a perpetual trophy with the words “Best child of Duckville” engraved on it. Each inhabitant of Duckville has a non-empty list (which never changes) of other inhabitants of Duckville. Whoever receives the trophy
gets to keep it for one day, and then passes it on to someone on their list the next day. Gregers has previously received the trophy. It turns out that each time he does receive it, he is guaranteed to receive it again exactly $2025$ days later (but perhaps earlier, as well). Hedvig received the trophy today. Determine all integers $n>0$ for which we can be absolutely certain that she cannot receive the trophy again in $n$ days, given the above information.

The $ n$ roots of a complex coefficient polynomial $ f(z) \equal{} z^n \plus{} a_1z^{n \minus{} 1} \plus{} \cdots \plus{} a_{n \minus{} 1}z \plus{} a_n$ are $ z_1, z_2, \cdots, z_n$. If $ \sum_{k \equal{} 1}^n |a_k|^2 \leq 1$, then prove that $ \sum_{k \equal{} 1}^n |z_k|^2 \leq n$.

Bayus has eight slips of paper, which are labeled 1$, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,$ and $128.$ Uniformly at random, he draws three slips with replacement; suppose the three slips he draws are labeled $a, b,$ and $c.$ What is the probability that Bayus can form a quadratic polynomial with coefficients $a, b,$ and $c,$ in some order, with $2$ distinct real roots?

On a $9\times 9$ square lake composed of unit squares, there is a $2\times 4$ rectangular iceberg also composed of unit squares (it could be in either orientation; that is, it could be $4\times 2$ as well). The sides of the iceberg are parallel to the sides of the lake. Also, the iceberg is invisible. Lily is trying to sink the iceberg by firing missiles through the lake. Each missile fires through a row or column, destroying anything that lies in its row or column. In particular, if Lily hits the iceberg with any missile, she succeeds. Lily has bought $n$ missiles and will fire all $n$ of them at once. Let $N$ be the smallest possible value of $n$ such that Lily can guarantee that she hits the iceberg. Let $M$ be the number of ways for Lily to fire $N$ missiles and guarantee that she hits the iceberg. Compute $100M+N$.

Along the direct highway Tmutarakan - Uryupinsk at points $ A_1 $, $ A_2 $, $ \dots $, $ A_ {100} $ are the towers of the DPS mobile operator, and in points $ B_1 $, $ B_2 $, $ \dots $, $ B_ {100} $ are the towers of the "Horn" company. (Tower numbering may not coincide with the order of their location along the highway.) Each tower operates at a distance of $10$ km in both directions along the highway. It is known that $ A_iA_k \geq B_iB_k $ for any $ i $, $ k \leq 100 $.
Prove that the total length of all sections of the highway covered by the DPS network is not less than the length of the sections covered by the Horn network .
