Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a right circular cone with height $\sqrt{15}$ and base radius $1$. Let $V$ be the vertex of $\mathcal{C}$, $B$ be a point on the circumference of the base of $\mathcal{C}$, and $A$ be the midpoint of $VB$. An ant travels at constant velocity on the surface of the cone from $A$ to $B$ and makes two complete revolutions around $\mathcal{C}$. Find the distance the ant travelled.

The sum of the following seven numbers is exactly 19: \[a_1=2.56,\qquad a_2=2.61,\qquad a_3=2.65,\qquad a_4=2.71,\] \[a_5=2.79,\qquad a_6=2.82,\qquad a_7=2.86.\] It is desired to replace each $a_i$ by an integer approximation $A_i$, $1 \le i \le 7$, so that the sum of the $A_i$'s is also 19 and so that $M$, the maximum of the "errors" $|A_i - a_i|$, is as small as possible. For this minimum $M$, what is $100M$?

In a triangle $ABC$, $D$ is the reflection of $A$ about the sideline $BC$. A circle $(K)$ with diameter $AD$ meets $DB,DC$ at $M,N$ which are distinct from $D$. Let $E,F$ be the midpoint of $CA,AB$. The circumcircles of $KEM,KFN$ meet each other again at $L$, distinct from $K$. Let $KL$ meets $EF$ at $X$; points $Y,Z$ are defined in the same manner. Prove that three lines $AX,BY,CZ$ are concurrent. Tran Quang Hung, Dean of the Faculty of Science, Thanh Xuan, Hanoi.

It is known that for any subset of $2019$ cities, the total number of roads between them is the same. If the total number of roads in that country is $A$, find all possible values of $A$.

Kyiv City MO Juniors Round2 2010+ geometry, 2019.7.31

The teacher drew a coordinate plane on the board and marked some points on this plane. Unfortunately, Vasya's second-grader, who was on duty, erased almost the entire drawing, except for two points $A (1, 2)$ and $B (3,1)$. Will the excellent Andriyko be able to follow these two points to construct the beginning of the coordinate system point $O (0, 0)$? Point A on the board located above and to the left of point $B$.

Let $ \sigma = (a_1, a_2, \cdots , a_n)$ be permutation of $ (1, 2 ,\cdots, n)$. A pair $ (a_i, a_j)$ is said to correspond to an [b]inversion[/b] of $\sigma$ if $ i<j$ but $ a_i>a_j$. How many permutations of $ (1,2,\cdots,n)$, $ n \ge 3$, have exactly [b]two[/b] inversions? For example, In the permutation $(2,4,5,3,1)$, there are 6 inversions corresponding to the pairs $ (2,1),(4,3),(4,1),(5,3),(5,1),(3,1)$.
