Find the largest positive integer $n <30$ such that $\frac{1}{2}(n^8 + 3n^4 -4)$ is not divisible by the square of any prime number.
Let $f(x) = x^n$ where $n$ is a fixed positive integer and $x =1, 2, \cdots .$ Is the decimal expansion $a = 0.f (1)f(2)f(3) . . .$ rational for any value of $n$ ?
The decimal expansion of a is defined as follows: If $f(x) = d_1(x)d_2(x) \cdots d_{r(x)}(x)$ is the decimal expansion of $f(x)$, then $a = 0.1d_1(2)d_2(2) \cdots d_{r(2)}(2)d_1(3) . . . d_{r(3)}(3)d_1(4) \cdots .$
Phoenix is counting positive integers starting from $1$. When he counts a perfect square greater than $1$, he restarts at $1$, skipping that square the next time. For example, the first $10$ numbers Phoenix counts are $1$, $2$, $3$, $4$, $1$, $2$, $3$, $5$, $6$, $7$, $...$ How many numbers will Phoenix have counted after counting 1$00$ for the first time?
Call admissible a set $A$ of integers that has the following property:
If $x,y \in A$ (possibly $x=y$) then $x^2+kxy+y^2 \in A$ for every integer $k$.
Determine all pairs $m,n$ of nonzero integers such that the only admissible set containing both $m$ and $n$ is the set of all integers.

Trapezoid $ABCD$ with bases $AB$ and $CD$ is inscribed in a circle. Prove that the quadrilateral formed by orthogonal projections of any point of this circle onto lines $AC, BC, AD$ and $BD$ is inscribed.
For $n$ an odd positive integer, the unit squares of an $n\times n$ chessboard are coloured alternately black and white, with the four corners coloured black. A it tromino is an $L$-shape formed by three connected unit squares. For which values of $n$ is it possible to cover all the black squares with non-overlapping trominos? When it is possible, what is the minimum number of trominos needed?
Given convex $ n$-gon $ A_1\ldots A_n$. Let $ P_i$ ($ i \equal{} 1,\ldots , n$) be such points on its boundary that $ A_iP_i$ bisects the area of polygon.

1. The transformation $ n \to 2n \minus{} 1$ or $ n \to 3n \minus{} 1$, where $ n$ is a positive integer, is called the 'change' of $ n$. Numbers $ a$ and $ b$ are called 'similar', if there exists such positive integer, that can be got by finite number of 'changes' from both $ a$ and $ b$. Find all positive integers 'similar' to $ 2005$ and less than $ 2005$.

A bird starts with 300 ml of blood at 100 degrees in its body, 50 ml of blood at 0 degrees in its feet. Every minute, 50 ml of blood flows from the body to the feet, and 50 ml of blood at 40% of the body temperature flows from the feet to the body. The bird feels cold once its internal body temperature (not including the feet) falls below 60 degrees. Compute how many minutes it takes for the bird to feel cold.
