Joe the teacher is bad at rounding. Because of this, he has come up with his own way to round grades, where a [i]grade[/i] is a nonnegative decimal number with finitely many digits after the decimal point.
Given a grade with digits $a_1a_2 \dots a_m.b_1b_2 \dots b_n$, Joe first rounds the number to the nearest $10^{-n+1}$th place. He then repeats the procedure on the new number, rounding to the nearest $10^{-n+2}$th, then rounding the result to the nearest $10^{-n+3}$th, and so on, until he obtains an integer. For example, he rounds the number $2014.456$ via $2014.456 \to 2014.46 \to 2014.5 \to 2015$.
There exists a rational number $M$ such that a grade $x$ gets rounded to at least $90$ if and only if $x \ge M$. If $M = \tfrac pq$ for relatively prime integers $p$ and $q$, compute $p+q$.

Let $I$ be the center of the inscribed circle of the triangle $ABC$. The inscribed circle is tangent to sides $BC$ and $AC$ at points $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. Using a ruler and a compass, find the center of excircle for triangle $CK_1K_2$ which is tangent to side $CK_2$, in at most $4$ steps (each step is to draw a circle or a line).

(i)
$$\frac{3}{4}\le xy+yz+zx<1$$
(ii)

Farmer James wishes to cover a circle with circumference $10\pi$ with six different types of colored arcs. Each type of arc has radius $5$, has length either $\pi$ or $2\pi$, and is colored either red, green, or blue. He has an unlimited number of each of the six arc types. He wishes to completely cover his circle without overlap, subject to the following conditions:
[list][*] Any two adjacent arcs are of different colors.
[*] Any three adjacent arcs where the middle arc has length $\pi$ are of three different colors. [/list]
Find the number of distinct ways Farmer James can cover his circle. Here, two coverings are equivalent if and only if they are rotations of one another. In particular, two colorings are considered distinct if they are reflections of one another, but not rotations of one another.

Circle $\omega_1$ of radius $1$ and circle $\omega_2$ of radius $2$ are concentric. Godzilla inscribes square $CASH$ in $\omega_1$ and regular pentagon $MONEY$ in $\omega_2$. It then writes down all 20 (not necessarily distinct) distances between a vertex of $CASH$ and a vertex of $MONEY$ and multiplies them all together. What is the maximum possible value of his result?

Is it possible to divide the plane into polygons so that each polygon is transformed into itself under some rotation by $360/7$ degrees about some point? All sides of these polygons must be greater than $1$ cm.
(A polygon is the part of a plane bounded by one non-self-intersect-ing closed broken line, not necessarily convex.)
